    Abstract: An adjustable cable end coupling includes an elongated female coupling having an internal bore and containing a resilient locking tab having teeth extending into the interior of the coupling bore. An elongated male insert attached to a cable end and having a plurality of circumferential teeth formed therein is insertable within the coupling bore so that the resilient locking tab teeth engage the teeth of the male insert to hold it in a set position within the coupling. Manual force on the insert may be used to overcome the locking forces of the resilient tab on the insert to permit adjustment of the relative position of the insert within the coupling.
