need help finding a certain tool

[shanky887614]

was looking for a pair of rubber stretchers for work

i cant find them online at all.

when you terminate belden 3c cable e.g. 8770

you put a binding sleeve over the metal shielding of the cable before you crimp ferrule's on the end

managed to find the ferrule crimpers and the binding sleeves but no look finding the tool to put the binding sleeve's on

Reminds me of the title on my wife's dating site profile. Aaah, the good old days.
Sorry, can't actually help with the question though.

It's worth investing in a bottle of sleeve lubricant, makes getting the tool out (ooh err missus) a lot easier

During my apprenticeship they were known as "F***y stretchers". Don't think the right thing would appear in a google search though....

i hold them up to my mouth and give it a wet blow on the inside. This goves them enough moisture to slide off, but enough to keep them in place

Search "Speculum" then.

I'm not one for "double entendres" but I do like to slip one in every now and then....and I may have a spare helluva tool, I mean Hellerman tool, kicking around. How quickly do you need it?
