Here's another invaluable piece of kit we frequently use to ensure easy IC insertion. No more hand-bending EPROM legs to get them to fit into sockets or PCBs! Simply place your DIP into this tool and squeeze both sides and the pins will be safely re-aligned and shaped correctly for insertion. The reversible design straightens 0.3" wide ICs on one side and 0.6" wide ICs on the other side. Suitable for 0.3" (eg. PAL, GAL) or 0.6" (eg. EPROM) wide chips. Straightens IC's with 8, 14, 16, 18, 20, 24, 28, 40 and 42 pins Made from ESD safe plastic with a grounding point screw to earth if required.
