- 19 - ABSTRACT CLAMP ASSEMBLY A clamp assembly for securing the ends of longitudinal tensile load-bearing elements comprises a pair of rings 1, 2 having complementary tapered surfaces 6, 7. When assembled, one ring 1 seats coaxially inside the other ring 2 and the elements 4 are gripped between the tapered surfaces. The outer, tapered surface 6 of the inner ring 1 is roughened and embedded in the surface of the elements 4 so that load on the elements acts preferentailly to draw the inner ring 1 more tightly against the inner, tapered surface 7 of the outer ring 2. An outer collar 3 engages the outer ring 2 with a flange 13 to retain the assembly. The assembly finds particular application as an armour clamp for a submarine telecommunications cable.
