An end fitting for a cable assembly including a conduit and a core wire slidably positioned within the conduit. The fitting includes a housing, an elongated guide member, and a locking clip. The housing includes a rear wall having an aperture, a forward wall having an rear wall aperture axially aligned with the aperture, a lock window positioned between the rear and forward walls, and a forward window spaced forwardly from the lock window. The guide member is secured at its rear end to the core wire and is slidably received at its forward end in the housing apertures. The guide member includes a plurality of axially spaced serrations and a head portion at its forward end which is radially compressible to allow the guide member to be passed through the apertures in the walls whereafter the head member expands to preclude withdrawal of the guide member from the housing. The locking clip is slidably mounted in the lock window and includes a plurality of axially spaced serrations for locking coaction with the serrations on the guide member so as to lock the guide member in any position of axial adjustment relative to the housing. The end fitting may also include an accessory member which is mounted for sliding movement on the housing between a shipping position in which it precludes movement of the locking clip to its engaged position and an operational position in which it provides a visual indication that the locking clip is in its engaged position.
