Abstract
A dead end connector member including a shaft section and a clevis section. The shaft section includes a ridge section, wherein the ridge section is sized and shaped to have an outer sleeve compressed thereon to connect the outer sleeve to the shaft section. The clevis section has a front end connected to the shaft section. The clevis section includes two spaced legs forming an eyebolt receiving gap between the legs. Each leg comprises a pin hole adapted to receive a fastener to rotatably connected the dead end connector to an eyebolt of another member. The clevis section includes a tab at a rear end of the clevis section. The tab extends at least partially across the gap to form a rotation limiter adapted to contact one side of the eyebolt and limit rotation of the dead end connector member relative to the eyebolt in only one direction.
