Abstract
A hand-held fiber cleaving tool has an elongate channel for receiving a fiber, a shroud for exposing a part of the fiber and a fiber cleaving unit including a cutting element rotative through the shroud about an axis parallel to and spaced from the channel longitudinal axis for generally sectoral cutting of the fiber. The tool further includes a fiber puller cooperating with a fiber clamping device to separate a portion of the fiber subsequent to cleaving. The clamping device is disposed on one side of the cleaved fiber portion and the fiber puller is disposed on the opposite side. The puller has selectively movable members adapted to grasp the fiber under manual operation and to pull the grasped portion in a longitudinal direction to separate it from the fiber portion held by the clamping device.
