Abstract
A cable assembly includes an elongate conductor surrounded by an outer insulator and an outer ferrule surrounding a portion of the conductor. An outer surface of the outer ferrule is deformed to produce an indentation having an indentation surface that is angled relative to the outer surface. The indentation forms a barb that at least partially penetrates the outer insulator. A method of manufacturing the cable assembly and a tool for forming the outer ferrule is also presented and described.
