Abstract:
A handheld tool for straightening a cable includes a straightening portion disposed in a housing portion. The straightening portion is configured to define a straightening path that extends in a longitudinal direction through the housing portion, and the straightening portion is structurally configured to engage a fiber cable that extends along the straightening path. The straightening portion is configured to spin freely relative to the housing portion such that the straightening portion is structurally configured to straighten a fiber cable that engages the straightening portion as the fiber cable is moved through the housing in the longitudinal direction. The housing portion is structurally configured to permit access to the straightening path from a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction in order to enhance placement of the fiber cable in the straightening path.
