Armored Cable and Flexible Metal Conduit Strippers

Strip BX, MC, and HCF armored cable in addition to flexible metal conduit. Turn the crank to make a slit in the cable or conduit, then twist to remove the outer layer without damaging the wires inside or having to debur the ends. Strippers can cut at the end or middle of cable or conduit.
