ABSTRACT:
End portions of a plurality of articles (12) are simultaneously treated in an electrolytic bath. End portions of the articles are inserted into an array of apertures (17) extending between major surfaces of a planar holder (11). Inserting the articles (12) into the apertures guides them into an interfering contact with coil springs (28). Coils of the springs (28) are urged aside and provide an urging force to retain the articles in the holder (11). The contact of the springs (28) with the articles (12) also establishes electrical continuity between the articles (12) through the springs (28) to external ends (43) of anchoring rods (37) for the springs, such that when the ends (43) are coupled into a treating circuit and protruding ends of the articles depend into a treating bath such ends become treated. A frame located relative to the surface of the treating bath receives the holder (11) and establishes a reference for the depth of insertion of the articles into the bath.
