Abstract

The present invention relates to improved liner constructions, and accordingly provides a cable sleeve liner capable in use of being wrapped around a cable splice and preferably having sufficient rigidity to provide an inner support for a heat-recoverable sleeve to be shrunk thereover, the liner comprising a laminate having at least one layer of fibrous sheet material and a metal layer which is substantially impermeable to moisture vapor and has one of its major surfaces facing away from all fibrous sheet layers which may be present. Preferably the fibrous layer(s) is or are arranged between the metal layer and a microperforated first layer of flexible polymeric film material which is permeable to gases or vapors generated within the laminate during recovery of the sleeve.
