Brand SKU 317092

Engineered for versatility and precision, the forged wire strippers boast a robust design that allows for the cutting of various screws such as 6-32 and 8-32 without threading. Capable of handling a range of materials, they efficiently cut cable, wires, and various types of conduits including NM-B, BX, and MC, making them an essential tool for both professional electricians and DIY enthusiasts alike. The high-grade special tool steel construction is not only forged and oil-hardened across multiple stages for durability, but it also includes induction-hardened blades that offer an impressive 50% higher cutting capacity than competitor models while reducing cutting power by 25%. Adding to their practical design, the ergonomic multi-component handles provide a comfortable grip, equipped with features like locating ridges for easy identification of stripping holes, ensuring precision when stripping 10 to 20 AWG solid and stranded wire. The inclusion of a wire looping groove aids in attaching wire to screws, while wide gripping jaws facilitate effortless wire twisting and conduit reaming to remove any burrs. It’s a tool that blends top-tier engineering with user-friendly features, making it indispensable for a variety of electrical tasks.
