Wire Stripping Pliers – 5-in-1 Electrical Tool

A simple electrical project like connecting to an outlet, extending an electrical cable, or fixing a connection involves five separate tasks: cutting wires, stripping the insulation, splitting the cable jacket, twisting connections, and crimping terminals.

Most toolkits deal with this by having 5 different tools, which are changed rapidly as necessary during the work. Each exchange takes time and increases the weight of a tool bag, which is already overpacked. These wire stripping pliers are all in one tool for the five functions. One pick, one tool, and no other items to find.

These multi-function wire stripping pliers will work by cutting through the wire to strip the insulation away. The pliers have a series of precisely sized holes in the jaw which are calibrated to the standard wire gauges or mm² wire sizes.

The distinguishing feature of each hole is that it removes the plastic coating from a special size of electrical wire without cutting into the copper wire beneath it; this is an essential function that any electrical wire stripping tool must be able to do reliably. To the side of the stripping holes is a special splitting head which allows a strip of double- or triple-core cabling to be split through the outer sheath in such a way that the conductors will not be nicked.
