DESCRIPTION:
This cable stripper is designed for cables of all insulation types 2.50 to 11mm (0.10-

The precision stripping tool is for removing the sheath from signal, telephone, audiovisual, instrumentation and
data transmission copper and fiber optic cables. The tool has 10 position indexing blade height adjustment wheel
for accurate and repeatable stripping results. An “X” position on the wheel allows the tool to be closed together to
eject a worn blade cassette for quick and safe replacement. This tool will last for up to 50,000 cycles (blade life is
dependent on material being stripped).
