Abstract
A strip of electrode material is extended across a through-hole in a supporting surface and pushed through the hole into a container of an electrochemical cell. The strip assumes a generally U-shaped appearance as it is pushed through the hole by a mandril. The mandril preferably includes an elastomeric head which expands radially outward upon pressing contact with the interior base wall of the container so as to press the trailing legs of the U-shaped material outward against the interior container wall.
