Helically applied armour wires (1) of a cable or the like are anchored to a plate (3), for attachment to a jointing chamber or repeater, for example, by gripping between an inner member (6) and an outer member (7). The outer member is longitudinally split such that axial movement of a locking collar (8) during fastening thereof to plate (3) causes radial movement of the outer member (7) towards the inner member (6) for gripping the anchor wires (1) therebetween. Due to the matching tapered faces (10) of the outer member (7) and the locking collar (8) increased load on the armour wires increases the gripping force effective thereon, thus minimising cable elongation and, for example, possible damage to optical fibres contained therein, The faces of the inner and outer members are suitably machined to ensure gripping of the anchor wire therebetween. <IMAGE> |
