Abstract: The present invention provides an assembly for securing a cable sheath of a cable release system. The assembly includes a mounting bracket, preferably of one-piece construction, which is secured to a sheath of a sheathed cable by a retaining ring rather than by sonic welding or by gluing. Securing the bracket to the sheath by the retaining ring permits free rotation of the cable sheath. The retaining ring will not slide up or down accidentally on the sheath. The retaining ring secures the bracket in place, and also permits adjustment up and down to allow for variations in user assembly requirements.
