Abstract: A portable hand tool for forming and applying metallic tape as armor on cables. The tool includes a magazine for holding the metallic tape, replaceable roller dies for contouring the tape, a rack and pinion ratchet mechanism for moving the dies over the tape, and a pair of handles for manipulating the rack and pinion and rotating the entire tool about the cable being taped.

Abstract: An electrical connector for a high voltage, high power cable for use in an environment of high pressure fluid. The connector is comprised of parts which can be assembled in place in the field with widely available tools, by unskilled operatives. The connector includes a generally cylindrical housing of rigid material, one end of which is designed to tightly enclose an armored cable and the other end of which is provided with a coupling ring for secure attachment to a feedthrough socket, a continuous outer protective sheath of rigid material thus being provided. Within the housing, a generally cylindrical contactor support body, fabricated of resiliently deformable insulating material, seats on the wall of the housing. A contactor for each of the contacts of the feedthrough socket is sealed within the contactor support body.
