O-Ring Insertion Tool.

Abstract

The instant invention relates to electrical connectors and more particularly to a tool for accurately and effectively installing an O-ring in an inwardly facing O-ring groove in an electrical connector without causing damage to the O-ring. While it has generally been found the electrical connectors of a general type which are adapted for receiving O-rings in inwardly facing O-ring grooves therein can be effectively utilized for achieving electrical connections which are impervious to water it has been found that it can often be difficult to properly and effectively install O-rings into the inwardly facing O-ring grooves of connectors of this type.
