Patent ID: 8001679

Claim:
A compression tool with adjustable pushing length for connecting an end connector to an end of a cable, comprising: a die internally defining a recess, and the recess having an inner diameter substantially equal to an outer diameter of the cable for supporting the cable therein; a slider being axially spaced from the recess for supporting the end connector thereon while the end of the cable to be connected with the end connector being extended through the recess to partially insert in the end connector; a chamber having the slider slidably mounted thereto, such that the slider is axially movable toward and away from the die; an inner link being connected at a first end to a rear end of the slider, and being axially spaced from the recess of the die; the inner link being provided near a second end with a front locating hole and a rear locating hole, and the front and the rear locating hole being different in diameter; and a push button being installed on the compression tool for selectively extending through the front locating hole or the rear locating hole to force the inner link forward, so that the slider connected to the first end of the inner link can be axially pushed forward toward the die by two different lengths under control to thereby radially compress and connect the end connector to the end of the cable.
