ABSTRACT:
A quick acting gated retainer for wire, cable, or other elongated material requiring a permanent or temporary mount. The device features one or a pair of spring biased gates on one or both sides rotating and concurrently translating inwardly, during both the insertion and removal process of cable from the guide cavity formed to hold the inserted cable. This provides a clear line for both insertion and removal of cable or similar elongated objects from the guide cavity and prevention of damage to the inserted object from the gates which will naturally retract from contact with the inserted wire since the gates translate as well as rotate in their engagement. The nylon structure with the internal reinforcing guarantees a long lasting, rigid device that will not damage wires, cables or ropes held within the guide cavity.
