Abstract

Methods of transforming a cable are disclosed herein, wherein the cable comprises an inner conductor and an insulator disposed around the inner conductor, and wherein some embodiments include heating the inner conductor to soften at least a portion of the insulator adjacent to the inner conductor, directing a fluid along the softened insulator and thereby creating a space between the inner conductor and the insulator along a length of the cable, injecting a lubricant into the space between the inner conductor and the insulator, and after creating the space between the inner conductor and the insulator, extracting the inner conductor from the cable.
