The tension force is always directed along the length of the thing doing the pulling (string, rope, chain). When drawing a FBD, make sure that your tension force vector is drawn such that the object is being pulled, not pushed!

Tension (physics) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In physics, tension is the magnitude of the pulling force exerted by a string, cable, chain, or similar object on another object. It is the opposite of compression. As tension is the magnitude of a ...
