Abstract
A wire inserting ram (3) is reciprocably mounted in a tool frame (1) which defines a guideway for a connector (7) extending transversely of the ram path. Spring biased wire-grippers (20) are mounted above a wire pusher (27, 28) at a forward end of the ram (7) to support a wire (22) against displacement on trimming between a pusher part (29) and a shear plate (18) on the frame, on forward movement of the ram (7). A bore (36) in the frame allows passage of trimmed wire. Cam means (26) on the frame (1) is arranged to engage the wire grippers (20) on withdrawal of the ram (7) to urge them against the spring bias to an open condition.
