  • Through-hull cable plug
    Patent number: 5598806
    Abstract: A through-hull cable plug provides for a water-tight passage of cable through a bore formed in a boat hull. The cable plug of the invention includes an elongate stuffing tube having a pre-determined diameter and including a cable-receiving slot which extends along the length thereof, and opens through a side thereof. The plug includes a head having a size greater than that of the pre-determined diameter, which head is located at one end of the stuffing tube and which also has a cable-receiving slot formed therein. The cable-receiving slot of the head is contiguous with the cable-receiving slot of the stuffing tube. A fastener is provided and is received on the other end of the stuffing tube. The fastener is conformal with the stuffing tube and is movable along the length thereof to form a compression, water-tight fitting along the length of the stuffing tube between the head and the fastener.
