ABSTRACT:
The tool comprises a plurality of tubular telescoping sections of insulating material arranged in a series. Each of the sections, except a most rearward end section, has a forwardly facing annular exterior shoulder at its rearward end and each of the sections, except a most forward end section, has a rearwardly facing annular interior shoulder at its forward end. When the tool is fully extended for use, each rearwardly facing shoulder engages a forwardly facing shoulder and radial apertures in the sections are in alignment. A pin support located within the rearward end of each section except the most rearward section contains a pin which is biased outwardly by a compression spring through the aligned apertures thus locking the sections in their extended positions with respect to each other. The pins, aligned openings, and shoulders are relatively positioned so that pulling forces are opposed by the shoulders and not the pins.
