What Customers Are Saying

The wire stripper tool received mixed reviews. Many found it useful and convenient for quickly and cleanly stripping various wire types without damage. However, some customers reported issues with the tool jamming or not working well on certain wire gauges, particularly thinner 14-gauge. While generally effective, the tool's performance can be inconsistent, and it may not suit all users' needs equally.

ripper works well

 Would Recommend

The job i got it for (cutting the sheeth) works well, as long as you make sure the ripper is only trying to cut the sheeth, not the paper insulation. The rest of the features are just gimmicks.

Wire Stripper

 Would Not Recommend

I bought this to work on a project that required quite a bit of stripping. I used for a while. I also looked at the instructions. They were not clear. I may just need more time to perfect my technique. I haven’t given up on it yet.

Hi Chuck if you have a lot of work to do you might look at the wire strippers designed for NM cable like our 45-248 or 45-249. Have fun Ron at ron.ki...

Not sure

 Would Not Recommend

I could not get it to cut at all but I gave it 3stars because it could be me but I don't think so.
