ABSTRACT:
A cable slitter for separating side-by-side cables connected by a web of insulating material, particularly coaxial cables, includes a slitting blade for separating the cables and a shaving blade for removing excess web material. The shaving blade is mounted on a hinge member between a pair of guide projections. The hinge member is mounted on the tool body and swings to an open position to receive the cable to be separated, allowing the cable to be positioned on a second pair of guide projections on the tool body. The hinge member swings to a closed position to pierce the web material and trap the cable between the guide projections on the hinge member and the guide projections on the body. The guide projections act relative to the "valleys" defined by the web material and the outer circumferences of the cables to guide the tool as the tool is moved lengthwise along the cables. The shaving blade is positioned relative to a surface having a notch therein to remove any excess web material prior to installing connectors on the cables.
