ABSTRACT:
A self locking cable end termination socket assembly has a one-piece tapered wedge as a locking device for a cable that fits into a housing with two parts that are locked together. The wedge and a cable looped over the wedge fit within an interior opening in the housing. When the cable is tightened, the wedge tightens against surfaces defining the opening in the housing and wedges in place. The two housing parts include a saddle and a cap which fit together and are held in a fixed position with interlocking members. The cap has a knock-off lug that, when hit with sufficient force, such as by using a weight on an end of a cable to form a pendulum ram, will release from the saddle, making removal of the wedge and the cable greatly simplified.
