ABSTRACT:
A compression assembly tool for attaching a connector to an end of a cable by compressing the connector axially uses a light rigid O-frame. The handle is spring loaded to the open position, but is held in the closed position by a wire bail for storage. A pair of split base supports having annular bearing surfaces for supporting the back of the connector over a full 360 degrees are pivotally attached to the body and closed by a spring. The split base supports are easily opened by pressing on push surfaces to pivot them to the open position. The split base supports have stops to bring them positively into the correct alignment with the axis of compression when the split base supports are closed.
