A tool is disclosed, for inserting a multi-turn spiral lock, received by a groove of a piston assembly The tool includes a handle, for transmitting manual torque forces, to enter a spiral, grooved head, or a profiled fitting, a wire lock ring The spiral, grooved head, is manufactured, with a turn medium-pitched, helical groove. This permits the spire, after being assembled, to be easily pushed, and transferred, to a piston groove.
