CRIMPING DEVICE A device for circumferentially crimping a tubular cable puller onto a free end of a cable, said crimping device comprising a base adapted for securement to the body of a fluid actuator; a holder for said tubular puller and adapted for securement to the piston rod of said actuator whereby linear movement of the actuator piston relative to the body thereof effects relative movement between the base and the holder; a wire rope secured at each of its ends to said base and extending into and looping within the confines of said holder; said holder having a semi-circular seat to accommodate the outside diameter of said tubular puller and a groove in said seat to receive a portion of the loop of the wire rope; the seat of said holder having a diameter equal to the outside diameter of the tubular puller; said wire rope looping 360 circumferentially crimping the same in response to said base being drawn away from said holder by operation of said actuator. |
