Abstract
An overhead door cable assembly includes a length of cable having first and second ends and a metal stop permanently molded proximate the first end of the length of cable. A molded metal stop, preferably formed of aluminum, may be secured at both ends of the cable. An overhead door cable assembly may be formed by a method that comprises providing a length of cable having first and second ends and positioning a portion of the length of cable proximate to the first end into a mold cavity. A molten metal material, preferably aluminum, is introduced into the mold cavity and allowed to cool, thereby forming a metal stop permanently molded to the cable. The overhead door cable assemblies of the invention may be utilized in a method of counterbalancing an overhead door.
