ABSTRACT:
A coupling device for a sheathed cable comprises a first coupling member for being connected to an end of a sheath of a sheathed cable and having a recess defined therein, a second coupling member slidable within the recess of the first coupling member, the first and second coupling members having openings defined therethrough so that the end of a core of the sheathed cable may be extended through the coupling members and operatively connected to one of an actuating mechanism and an actuatable mechanism, and a clip engageable to the first and second coupling members for locking the members together. The clip locks the two coupling members together in a first position in which the coupling members may be moved relative to each other, and a second position in which the coupling members are immovably fixed to each other, the coupling members being moveable relative to each other by a predetermined distance when moved from the first position to the second position, and the predetermined distance corresponding to a predetermined amount by which the cable core is tensioned.
