<p>A connector stick (10) is severed into separate connector modules. The stick is formed by arranging individual connector housings (12) in a serial row, and joining the connectors by a pair of L-shaped carriers (25). The carriers (25) are arranged to overlie a rounded outside corner (28) of each housing (12), with one leg (22) of the L overlying a sidewall (14), and the other leg (24) of the L overlying the bottom wall (16). A tool bit (40) is provided with first and second cutting surfaces, (42, 44) which sever respective legs (22, 24) of the carrier (25). The tool bit (40) is configured to be received between individual connector housings (12), to provide alignment with the legs (22, 24) of the carrier member (25). The tool bit (40) is arranged to sever a substantial portion of one carrier leg (22), and to thereafter sever both carrier leg portions (22, 24).</p> |
