Abstract
A manually manipulatable tray is provided for supporting electrical connectors. The tray includes a thin sheet of formed plastic material having side walls, an open end, a closed end and a floor. The floor has a plurality of generally parallel, spaced-apart, upwardly extending rails generally parallel to the side walls and defining generally parallel channels therebetween. A pair of finger-gripping portions are formed on a respective pair of the rails spaced inwardly of the side walls a sufficient distance such that an individual can finger-grip the finger-gripping portions with the individual's hands substantially being within the side walls of the tray. The pair of finger-gripping portions are located on opposite sides of a mid-point located generally equidistant between the open and closed ends of the tray.
