Remove the outer and inner insulation of NM-B building cable, commonly found inside your walls running power to light fixtures and switches. These strippers have a plier nose, which is useful for pulling and looping wire.

Strippers with a voltage detector have a handle that flashes and beeps when they detect a live circuit.

Stainless steel strippers resist corrosion and won't rust as quickly as strippers with steel blades when stored. They're best for less frequent use because their blades dull more quickly than steel blades.

The plier nose on these wire strippers is useful for pulling and looping wire. All of these strippers are marked with their wire gauge sizes, so it’s easy to select the correct size.

Wire strippers with a voltage detector have a handle that flashes and beeps when it detects a live circuit.

Stainless steel strippers resist corrosion and won't rust as quickly as strippers with steel blades when stored. They're best for less frequent use because their blades dull more quickly than steel blades.

Strip wire and crimp connectors with one tool.

Tools with a plier nose are useful for pulling and looping wire.

Tools with a voltage detector safely test for AC voltage without contacting live wires. Light and sound indicators alert you when over 50 volts AC is detected. The detector is attached to the tool’s handle; remove it from the handle to use it on its own.

Stainless steel tools are good for less frequent use. Their stripping blades dull more quickly than steel tools, but they resist corrosion and won't rust as quickly when stored.
