Abstract: A liner of resilient material formed to fit into an electrolytic cell. The liner is a one-piece layer of polymeric or plastic material impervious to liquid electrolyte. Protrusions are provided on the outer side of portions of the liner to space the layer from the cell wall. This spacing allows drainage of the electrolyte from leaks in the layer brought about by the impacting of the electrodes against the cell wall. The protrusions also act to cushion such impacts reducing the extent of damage caused thereby.
