ABSTRACT:
The invention is for improvements in a payout tube for a container-packaged coiled wire in which the tube in use is in the container along with the wire coil, a stub of the tube at its exit end protrudes through a hole in a container wall, and the tube is secured to that wall by having sections of the wall around the hole interposed between (a) a flange disposed on the tube on the inside of such wall in contact with such sections, and (b) locking tabs axially spaced on the tube from such flange and disposed on the outside of such wall in contact with such portions. One improvement is that the flange is replaced by lugs providing around the tube pairs of stop portions of which the portions in each pair are separated by notch openings respective to those tabs and each disposed axially opposite its corresponding tab, each such tab having facing towards its corresponding opening, a guide surface comprising a flat land and a camber at one margin of such tab, and each such tab and the stop portions flanking such corresponding notch opening defining an inflected passage for relative movement between such tab and stop portions of a corresponding one of said wall sections. Another improvement is to provide in such tube a restraining means which provides temporary resistance to a change in the movement of the wire through the tube.
