Abstract
A bending tool for semi-rigid coaxial cable makes bends possible with minimal damage to the cable. The tool contains two separate and independent series of superimposed cylindrical portions of gradually diminishing diameters along a linear path, oppositely directed away from a central support portion. Each of the cylindrical portions of one series is formed with a circumferential groove of like width and depth. Each of the cylindrical portions of the second series is formed with a circumferential groove of like width and like depth, but different from that of the one series.
