A lead insertion tool for use with an implantable cardiac stimulator having a connector receptacle and for use with an associated lead having a connector pin for insertion within the connector receptacle. The tool includes spring biased jaws for gripping the lead at a location set back from the terminus of the connector pin. An insertion stop is connected to the jaw for engaging the cardiac stimulator to limit the depth of insertion of the connector pin within the connector receptacle. An integral depth gauge extends from the gripping jaws toward the terminus of the connector pin for gauging the location of the insertion stop relative to the terminus of the connector pin. Full insertion of the connector pin within the connector receptacle is assured when the insertion stop engages the cardiac stimulator. The depth gauge is hinged to the gripping jaws and can move out of the way as the connector pin is inserted into the connector receptacle.
