<p>An end fitting for a strand has a tubular body of circular section and a multi-segmented insert, the internal diameter of the segmented insert having a ribbed configuration, the segmented insert being adapted to locate between the tubular body and an end of the strand, so that the tubular body may be swaged down to deform the ribbed internal diameter of the insert into the interstices of the strand and to clamp elements of the strand into engagement with one another.</p> |
