RS PRO Wire Stripper, 8mm Max, 170 mm Overall

Introducing the RS PRO Wire Stripper, designed to create a longitudinal window cut on vertical FTTH cables with minimal effort, and to allow the user access to the fibre modules inside the cables. The wire stripper offers a high-quality cutter and a stop lever for the cable sheath to ensure precise control when stripping the wire. Thanks to the soft grip ergonomic handles, this high-quality stripper guarantees a safe, light and comfortable grip, even with prolonged use. This RS PRO hand tool is a versatile tool that is ideal for wire stripping in a range of environments.

Wire strippers are a hand-held tool designed to remove insulation or outer sheath from electrical wires. Though this function can be achieved by other tools, such as knives or pliers, purpose-built wire strippers are more accurate and require less effort. Wire strippers create a neat and tidy cut to reveal wires, ready to be soldered or have a connector attached. There are various types available from stripping the cable to cutting copper and conduit. Wire strippers are primarily used by electricians or mechanics but are equally at home in any DIY toolbox.

No, even though the wire stripper is non-sparking, it is not ESD safe
