ABSTRACT:
A fitting for connecting a structure to an advanced composite tube, where the tube consists of high strength fibers embedded in a supporting matrix material. The fitting comprises a narrow sleeve bonded to a composite tube, split rings engaging the ends of the sleeve and overlying threaded rings fastened to the structure to be connected to the tubes, said rings when threaded together fixedly engaging said split rings. This assembly provides a secure, removable fitting while avoiding penetrations in the composite tube.
