ABSTRACT:
One-piece garter spring coupling release tool. The release tool is molded in a single selectively configured shape out of a durable, flexible plastic material such as Elastollan.TM. S98A available from Elastogran of Germany. The release tool generally comprises a cylindrical body with a slot along its length and a flange on one end. The slot permits the tool to be positioned around a port to which a garter spring coupling is connected; the flange provides an area for gripping the tool to releasably engage the tool with its coupling. The flexible, slotted configuration of the garter spring coupling release tool permits nesting of a four-piece set of such tools within each other to facilitate packaging, storage and retention of the tools as a set.
