Abstract
An impact extraction tool is disclosed for driving contacts from housings, circuit boards, and the like. The tool is adapted to extract contacts of substantially any post length and even contacts having posts lying under flush with respect to the supporting surface. The tool has a floating cocking spring and thus is shorter than similar tools.
