ABSTRACT:
Apparatus is disclosed for lubricating and/or cleaning out sheathed cable assemblies. The apparatus includes a housing which defines a reservoir for containing a lubricating medium. A hollow cylindrical jacket is mounted above an opening in the upper wall of the housing. Within the jacket a packing plug is mounted in assembled relationship about the sheath with the lower end of the plug disposed adjacent an upwardly diverging frusto-conical surface. The plug is compressed into fluid-tight sealing contact about the sheath by means of a packing nut which is threadable engaged in the upper end of the jacket. A washer disposed between the packing nut and plug provides a bearing surface for the nut. An air valve is mounted in the housing for receiving a charge of gas under pressure which forces oil from the reservoir through the clearance between the cable and sheath.
