    These cutters have insulated grips to protect against accidental contact with live electrical circuits. They are tested to 1,000 volts to meet IEC 60900 and ASTM F1505. Cutters produce a deeply pointed, pinched end on the tip of the wire. Use for electrical and general applications. The finger guards prevent your fingers from slipping off the handle and making contact with the jaws. Also known as diagonal-cutting pliers.

    Automatically strip insulation off high volumes of wire. These strippers sit on your workbench but are portable enough to cart around your facility. They accurately strip a variety of wire gauge sizes with the exact length you need—just adjust the settings. To make consistent cuts wire after wire, lock the settings in place. You can also toggle between stripping the insulation in the middle of the wire or stripping it to the end. An included funnel will help guide thin wires into the machine, so they are inserted correctly.

    Insert wire between the heated tips to melt off insulation and strip without the risk of nicking the wire. Choose the output power on these wire strippers based on the material you’re removing. For example, use 10% power to remove PVC insulation or 55% power to remove PTFE.
    These wire strippers sit on a stand, with an integrated handpiece holder on top to maximize work space and protect from burns. A blade removal plate lets users switch blades out of the handpiece without touching them.
