Abstract
An adaptable device for tensioning safety cable to a predetermined tension limit, crimping a ferule onto the cable, cutting the excess cable and ejecting the device from the crimped ferrule-cable assembly. The device compromises a tool body, a cable tensioner and an elongated nose. The cable tensioner comprises a handle for applying tension to a cable inserted into the tension gripper mechanism and a one-way clutch to prohibit movement in a direction which would unwind the cable or lessen the tension applied. The elongated nose has a ferrule receiving aperture for receiving a ferrule and passing the safety cable there through. A plunger is reciprocally operative in the nose piece to crimp the ferrule onto the cable, cut the excess cable and eject the device from the crimped ferrule-cable assembly. The Plunger is actuated either manually or by means of an attached power assisted tool. The elongated nose piece is removable so it can be interfaced with different tool bodies.
