The XAGA® splice closure system provides a fast, simple way to seal telephone cable splices in pressurized or nonpressurized telephone cable. The XAGA splice closure is used for aerial, buried, and underground applications on polyethylene or lead sheathed cable in sizes up to 3600 pairs. The XAGA splice closure sleeve is made of SuperSleeve sealing material, which combines the strength and durability of composite design with proven heat-shrink technology. SuperSleeve sealing material is composed of several layers of specially blended polymers, adhesives and fiber-reinforcing layer. The fiber-reinforcing layer provides excellent mechanical strength and eliminates the propagation of localized damage that can result from overheating or other errors in installation. Once the XAGA closure sleeve has been installed, the composite design of the SuperSleeve sealing material provides superior mechanical protection from forces such as impact, abrasion, UV light, and atmospheric contamination.
