Zusammenfassung:A stainless steel cable typically of 1.5 mm diameter has a ferrule threaded on it. The ferrule is of polypropylene and has a stepped bore, with a small bore portion and a large bore portion. The large diameter portion is arranged at the end of the ferrule adjacent an end of the cable. To secure the ferrule to the cable, a short length of the ferrule, the cable is unlaid at its end. The result is that the strands of the cable splay out, typically beyond the external diameter of the ferrule. Epoxy resin is applied to the cable at the ferrule and the splayed end. When the adhesive is well distributed, the cable is drawn through the ferrule to introduce the splayed end into the larger diameter portion.
