Abstract: The angled coaxial connector includes an insulator and inner conductor. The steering insulator serves to help guide, align, and locate an inner conductor in the bend of the angled connector. The steering insulator is adapted to receive and retain the inner conductor thereby framing and supporting the conductor. Furthermore, the inner conductor has an angled segment that is milled to have a width and a height, wherein the height of said angled segment is smaller than the width of the angled segment, more particularly, the width is substantially the same size as the diameter of the adjacent segments of the inner conductor. While the illustrated embodiment includes a substantially right angled connecter it is understood that the present invention is directed to connectors having either obtuse or acute angles as well.

Abstract: The present invention broadly contemplates a co-axial cable stripping tool generally comprising: (a) an elongated main handle having a bored opening formed longitudinally therein; (b) an elongated shaft a portion of which is co-axially positioned within the bored opening and a portion of which extends co-axially away from the main handle; (c) an elongated main housing co-axially aligned with, and longitudinally spaced from the main housing, and securely engaged with a portion of the elongated shaft; and (d) a stripping housing rotatably co-axially positioned within the main housing, and including first and second openings formed through opposing surfaces thereof, wherein the stripping housing is rotatably movable between two positions, each of which exposes one or the other of the first and second openings towards the free end of the tool.
