Abstract
An anchoring device for a tensioned cable comprises a split jaw with a striated inner cylindrical surface and with an outer lateral surface of frustoconic shape, which surrounds one end of the cable and cooperates with a complementary housing hollowed in a rigid part. This housing is so dimensioned so that it surrounds continuously the whole of the tapered end of the jaw. The half-angle at the apex of the outer lateral surface, of frustoconic shape, of the tapered end of the jaw is less than 10.degree.. The radial thickness of the annular terminal section of said tapered end is less than or equal to to 1/10 of the inner radius of said end.
