Abstract
A wire terminating tool is provided which simultaneously effects termination of a plurality of wires in a variety of connectors. The tool employs a nest adapted to receive connectors of a plurality of different constructions and to so position each connector that wire-receiving channels therein are in alignment with a plurality of tool stuffing or insertion blades. The latter simultaneously force a plurality of wires, initially aligned by a wire-aligning comb, into said channels. The wires are cut to desired length and are restrained from axially moving in the course of termination to obviate wire withdrawal from the channels during the terminating step. A novel handle pawl insures a desired, complete terminating stroke of the stuffing blades by the tool operator.
