ABSTRACT:
An externally commonly threaded split end fitting having a surface serving as a camming surface for an end-mounted nut. By advancing the nut along the split end of the fitting the camming surface reacting upon the nut causes a transmission of force through the nut onto the external threads of the split segmented end of the fitting causing in turn a radially inward pivoting of the jaw-like segments of the split head. The longitudinal axis of the fitting has a passageway for receiving a work piece, whereby the pivoting of the segments clamp the workpiece into the fitting. The fitting is unitary.
