Abstract: A cable end preparation tool is for a coaxial cable having an inner conductor, an outer conductor, and a dielectric therebetween. The cable end preparation tool includes a body and a blade carried by the body for removing a portion of the dielectric between the inner conductor and the outer conductor when the body is rotated about the coaxial cable. A first projection is carried by the body and has a predetermined shape for flaring an end portion of the outer conductor when the body is rotated relative to the coaxial cable. A second projection is movable with respect to the body between an outer conductor engaging position and a disengaged position, the second projection for corrugating the flared end portion of the outer conductor when in the outer conductor engaging position and the body is rotated relative to the coaxial cable.
