ABSTRACT:
A fluid operated cylinder assembly has an end cap wherein a wire key connection for retaining the end cap within a cylinder has a leg (B) on one end received within a slot (A) on the outer surface of the end cap has a crimped portion (D) at an opposite end being carried at an angle to permit insertion through an anchor passage (C) in the cylinder wall which may be bent to confine the wire key against dislodgement during continuous use. The wire key has an intermediate arcuate segment (E) which is preformed. The method contemplates first inserting an end cap within the cylinder exposing the anchor passage to permit insertion of the crimped end of the wire key and thereafter the leg (B) on the opposite end into the slot in the end cap after return of the end cap to locking position with subsequent further crimping or bending of the crimped end of the wire key to lock same into position.
