Abstract: A cable tie includes a body of a first material molded over at least one barb of a second material. The body includes a head section configured to secure the barb in a configuration that permits rotational movement of the barb, permit insertion of a tail section into the head section, and prevent extraction of the tail section from the head section by engagement of the barb. In one implementation, the cable tie is manufactured using a multi-shot molding process.

Abstract: A fitting, for terminating an electrical cable having two or more conductors, a central insulation portion, and a braided outer portion, includes a substantially tubular fitting body having a central bore extending therethrough, a forward end, and a cable receiving end. A tubular sleeve is positioned within the central bore of the fitting body and configured for insertion between the center insulation portion and the braided outer portion of an installed electrical cable. A clamping ring is positioned within the central bore of the fitting body about the tubular sleeve. Upon assembly of the fitting, the clamping ring is configured to clampingly engage the central bore of the fitting body and the tubular sleeve to secure the braided outer portion of the installed electrical cable to the fitting.

Abstract: A fitting, for terminating an electrical cable having two or more conductors, includes a substantially tubular body having a central bore configured to receive the electrical cable therethrough. A substantially tubular sealing sleeve is configured to engage a forward end of the body during assembly of the fitting to receive the two or more conductors of the electrical cable passing through the body. After receiving the two or more conductors, the sealing sleeve is configured to receive a sealing compound therein, such that the sealing compound flows between the two or more conductors during filling of the sealing sleeve. The sealing sleeve is formed of a transparent material to enable visible confirmation of sealing compound distribution and a determination that the sealing compound is free of voids or air bubbles.
