Abstract

A tension member termination device (10) optimized for terminating flexible flat tension members, the device including a socket (30) with a compression portion and a bulbous portion and a compression plate (80, 96) on each side of the compression portion fastenable by fasteners (100) extending through all of these features. The device (10) provides a pathway for the tension member through the device and upon torquing the fasteners (100) reliably secures the tension member while avoiding deleterious pressure and stress therein.
The invention also provides a safety clamp for optional use with the invention.
