Abstract

An improved flexible conduit assembly comprising a flexible conduit including an inner tube of synthetic resin, a plurality of wires wound helically about the inner tube, an outer casing enclosing the wires and the inner tube and a motion-transmitting wire core element, and an improved holder wherein a resilient and plato-resistant end anchor obtained by reversely bending the wires is embedded by injection molding synthetic resin against an end of the conduit, thereby making possible remarkably strong resistance against a pulling force.
