An apparatus for injecting a plurality of coil groups into a stator core of a dynamoelectric machine is described. The injection apparatus includes, in one embodiment, a stripper assembly including a first stripper. The first stripper includes an injection disk which, in one embodiment, is formed from nylon. A first surface of the injection disk is configured to contact a segment of at least one of the coils to move the coil axially along the blades of the injection apparatus without contacting portions of the coil in gaps between the blades.
