Abstract: A handle for a cable, the handle including a vertical portion extending along an axis and having a side surface with a portion thereof parallel with the axis and an end surface generally perpendicular to the axis. A blind bore is defined in the vertical portion extending from the end surface with an axis substantially parallel to the axis. A recess is defined in the side surface extending substantially perpendicular to the axis and intersecting with the blind bore. A push nut has a base with an opening therethrough and at least one gripping member extending into the opening. The push nut is positioned in the recess such that the opening and the gripping member are aligned with the blind bore.

Abstract: A casted unitary metallic oil filter adaptor that has an entirely internal lubricant flow path and threads for connecting associated components directly to the casted adaptor.

Abstract: A clamp for joining pipes has a body that is generally rectangular and a ledge that includes a fastener. The body fits over one pipe with the ledge between the pipes and the fastener passes through an aperture in the second pipe. The pipes are joined by applying a closure to the fastener.

Abstract: A gauge for identifying a seat contacting surface configuration of a wheel fastener. The gauge includes a body defining an upper surface and a front face with at least one gauge slot defined in the body. Each gauge slot extends from the top surface and has a circumferential wall extending about a portion thereof with an open area defined in the circumferential wall along the front face and opening into at least a portion of the gauge slot. Each gauge slot including at least a seat portion adjacent the upper surface and defining a seat corresponding with a given seat contacting surface configuration of a wheel fastener. A gauge assembly further including a sizing gauge and a method of identifying a seat contacting surface configuration are further disclosed.

Abstract: A one-piece cast metallic adaptor for an engine lubrication system that has threading in the casting to secure components to the one-piece cast metallic adaptor.

Abstract: A one-piece cast metallic adaptor for a filtering assembly that provides for direct threading of associated components to the adaptor. The adaptor provides an enclosed flow path for lubricant to flow between an engine lubrication network and a filter housing.

Abstract: A cast metallic adaptor for a filtering and cooling assembly that eliminates the needs for inserts or plugs and provides for direct threading of associated components to the adaptor. This construction also provides an enclosed flow path with a common axis for improved durability against burst pressure, heat and age degradation, and conditions related to cycling.

Abstract: A retaining ring for securing a pump to a tank. The ring has a circular body with an outer dimension selected to surround a pump opening in the fuel tank. An interior opening has a diameter that is selected to contact a portion of a pump housing that is placed in the tank. The retaining ring is fastened or attached directly to the tank.
