A termination appliance for a load bearing cable is particularly suited for extraordinarily high load applications. The appliance is formed by a pair of tandem, partially overlapping protuberance sub-assemblies, each sub-assembly being formed by an ellipsoidal member that is secured relative to the cable by a set of helical rods wrapped in tightly encircling relation over the member and extending in opposite direction therefrom in gripping relation with the cable. The sub-assemblies are disposed in a common housing with the forward portion of each sub-assembly seating against a respective restraining structure so that loads applied to the cable are shared by the respective sub-assemblies. Other features are disclosed. |
