ABSTRACT:
A cable dead end, and method of dead end formation, that can be readily utilized in the field with a minimum of equipment and components, yet providing a durable, tight, dead end. The cable end is cut off and a ferrule is slipped over the cable end onto the cable. The strands at the end of the cable are unwound and separated, an insert is disposed over the core strand and is disposed within a general bird-cage configuration of the cable strands at the cable end. The ferrule is then moved over the bird-cage configuration and to the end of the cable, and the void space inside the ferrule between the strands, ferrule, and insert is packed with steel wool. Then an anerobic, structural, single component adhesive (e.g. an oxygenated methacrylic) is poured into the ferrule interior volume, and quickly cures. Preferably the insert is barbed, and the interior cross-section of the ferrule is elliptical.
