ABSTRACT:
An integral structure is provided for ready attachment to a strand. The simple structure consists only of a first end forming a hook, a second end forming a strand receiving portion, a middle portion between the first and second ends, and a generally T-shaped projection formed from the middle portion for friction wrapping of a strand to the structure. The projection consists of a cross portion of the T spaced from and generally parallel to the middle portion, and a leg portion of the T interconnecting the cross portion to the middle portion. The leg portion is relatively short compared to the thickness of a strand to be received thereby so that a strand may be wrapped around the leg portion several times and tightly frictionally engaged by both the middle portion and the cross portion. The structure is formed by a continuous piece of metal bent to form the hook, strand receiving portion, and T-shaped projection, all of which structure are coplanar. The second end forming a strand receiving portion may comprise an eyelet, or preferably a loop portion and a terminating portion extending from the loop portion toward the hook.
