Abstract: A metal cable includes at least one center conductor, an internal insulator provided around the center conductor, a tape enclosure formed by a tape having an aluminum foil layer and a plastic layer laminated thereon, and an external insulating coating provided on the outer circumference of the tape enclosure. The width of the tape of the tape enclosure is wider than those of hitherto used tapes and larger than the length of the outer circumference of the internal insulator.

Abstract: A coaxial cable connector includes a connector body and a fastening member threadedly engageable with one end of the connector body. The connector body is provided therein with a partition wall defining a cable insulation cover removed end receiving chamber and a terminal pin receiving chamber. The connector body is further provided therein with a reinforcing sleeve integrally secured to the partition wall and a thin deformable sleeve secured to the reinforcing sleeve to form an annular clearance for receiving the external conductor of the coaxial cable between the thin sleeve and the reinforcing sleeve. The connector body is further provided therein an elastic ring surrounding the thin sleeve, and a contractible holding ring surrounding the reinforcing sleeve to form therebetween a clearance permitting the external conductor of the coaxial cable passing therethrough.

Abstract: A tool for removing the insulation covering of a coaxial cable. The tool has first and second through holes. The portion having the first through hole will support a cutter member able to adjust the cutting in length of the blade into the outer insulation covering. A scraper member is arranged to scrape-up and cut-off scraps and peel off the insulation covering when the tool is rotated relative to the coaxial cable; the cutter blade cuts in the outer insulation covering in a spiral manner. A certain length of the covering can be removed without doing any damage to an aluminum outer conductor.
