Abstract: A fitting for anchoring together adjacent sections of rope or cable makes use of a housing with parallel, oppositely positioned frustoconical holes, each adapted to accommodate a pair of complementary wedge sections. Each wedge section of the pair has a semi-cylindrical recess for engaging a corresponding section of rope and a tapered exterior which matches the interior of the corresponding frustonical hole. The two wedge sections engage opposite sides of the section of rope and grasp the rope tightly when drawn into the hole as tension is applied to the rope.
