ABSTRACT:
An intermediate retainer (20) for a motion transmitting remote control assembly (10) of the type for transmitting motion along a curved path includes a cylindrical sleeve (24) freely slidably surrounding a conduit (12). A cylindrical socket (26) extends perpendicularly from the sleeve (24) and includes eight elongated and resiliently deformable internal ribs (42, 44) which extend at alternating angles about an inner wall (34) of the socket (26) . The socket (26) is pressed over an extending threaded shaft (22), such as found in the engine compartment of a motor vehicle, so that the ribs (42, 44) are deformed over and tenaciously grip about the threads on the shaft (22) to help hold the conduit (12) in a routed path.
