ABSTRACT:
A tool for removing the pins that block the opposite ends of an electrical component storage tube, each pin including a shank and an enlarged head at one end of the shank. The tool includes a wedge having a relatively sharp edge and opposite surfaces which diverge from that edge. At least one slot is formed in the wedge which extends between those surfaces and is directed away from the edge to a location on the wedge between those opposite surfaces exceeds the length of the pin shank. Preferably, a pair of guide members are mounted to the wedge member on opposite sides of each slot for engaging and guiding a tube in the general direction of the slot, the spacing of the opposing walls of each member pair being somewhat greater than that of the tube walls. Preferably, the tool is adjustably mounted to a support so that its tool engaging surface can be oriented horizontally, vertically or any angle in between to suite the user of the tool. Also, the tool support may include an open-top receptacle over which the tool may be mounted so that the pins pulled from the tube can fall into the receptacle.
