Aerial Closures and Terminals
Closure Selection Guide
To order SLiC Aerial Closures and Terminals, follow these steps:
1. What is your pair count?
2. What is your cable size?
3. What is your sheath opening?
4. What type of connector are you using? Module (MS
2
or 710) or Discrete (Scotchlok)?
Note: Bundles built with modular connectors are half the size of discretes.
5. What is your splice bundle diameter?
These questions should guide you in choosing the correct closure.

Fewer parts and easier installation with

Superior seal
Easily adaptable
Single piece design
Double wall molded construction
Made from durable, rugged materials
Easy to access and reenter
The SLiC aerial closure is a single-
piece aerial closure, easily installed in
construction or maintenance situations.
The one-piece construction permits
complete splice access after placement
without removal of the closure or
bonding from the cables. The closures
are free breathing and suitable for
straight, butt, and branch splices of
non-pressurized communication cables.
Splices are protected by the
closure’s double-wall molded
polyethylene construction. The durable
SLiC closure will not crack or break
in even the harshest environment.
194
All components are attached to the
closure; there are no parts to lose.
Because of its interlocking ends,
the SLiC aerial closure can expand to
meet any size sheath opening without
special kits, eliminating excess
inventory. The 2 x 29, 3 x 33, 5 x 33,
and 7 x 33 closures can be extended
while maintaining their initial strength.
The SLiC aerial closure does not
require taping, bricking or any special
labor-intensive practices. The end seals
assure a snug fit on cables and eliminate
the need for a drip collar. Sealing
collars or tape are not required when
using the SLiC closure.
The two-, three-, five-, seven-, and
nine-inch diameter closures feature a
universal end seal to handle any plant
configuration. There are six sizes
available, accommodating splice
openings from 254 to 635 mm
(10 to 25 inches).

Aerial Terminal
and SLiC Aerial Terminal
with Spiral End Seal
199
The 3M SLiC Aerial Terminal and the
SLiC Aerial Terminal with Spiral End
Seal are distribution terminals and
closures contained within a
lightweight, double-wall molded-
plastic housing designed for fixed-
count termination of aerial drop wires.
Special block configurations required
by the individual customer are also
available and may be completed either
at the factory or by the customer.
End seals of the SLiC Terminal are
designed to assure proper sizing and a
snug fit around the cable sheath. This
eliminates the need for drip collars to
prohibit water from entering the splice
chamber. The SLiC Terminal with
Rubber End Seal comes packaged with
single-port end seals; however,
customers may use double-port or
triple-port end seals as their
applications require. The 7.6 cm SLiC
Terminal with spiral end seal comes
packaged with three port end seals.
And, the 12.7 cm terminal comes
packaged with four port end seals.
