Abstract
A universal cable fitting for a wide variety of applications includes a longitudinally slit sleeve tube (MR) and sealing bodies (DKG, DK, DKDP, DKS, DKO) on the ends of the sleeve tube. A sealing system is formed along the longitudinal edges of the sleeve tube by a sealing groove (DN), a sealing tongue (DF) and a wedge-shaped closure rail (LVS) that subjects a longitudinal seal (LD) to pressing during closure. Each sealing body is provided with a sealing groove (DU) for receiving an encircling seal (UD) having a corrugated profile. The sealing groove is provided in the direction of the encircling seal with a cutout into which an extension (AS) of the longitudinal seal penetrates. The cutout and the extension in the longitudinal seal produce direct contact with the encircling seal located in the sealing groove of the sealing body.
