Abstract:
This fastener assembly includes a body, an elongated member and a split wedge. The body defines a cavity that converges. An access opening at a small end provides access to the cavity. The member has a circumferential external profile at one end. The split wedge has two or more wedge segments with a flexible hinge connecting each of the wedge segments. Each of the wedge segments has an internal profile. The member is inserted through the access opening into the cavity of the body, and the wedge segments of the split wedge are positioned circumferentially around the member and then the split wedge is wedged in the cavity to maintain the external profile of the member engaged with the internal profile of the wedge segments of the split wedge.
