Bust a Gut.

Would Not Recommend

I ourchased these for stripping 10g and 12g wire. They do a fair job... in increments of 4-6 inches at a time. Good for small projects, not much else.

Wire strippers

Would Not Recommend

These wire strippers are well-made enough for the price. Though I think they’re a little over priced, they would be a little better if they had something on them to lock them closed.

Just What I Needed

Would Recommend

This was the least expensive wire stripper I could find, but I do like how durable it feels. My only complaint is that there is no locking mechanism to keep the strippers closed, but it's not a huge issue either way. Great product for the price.

Bent after minimal use

Would Not Recommend

Terrible! I bought these to simply put in new outlets and they were bent after 2 out of 12 outlets and would not close shut properly. I had to go buy new ones to complete the job.

Should you buy it!!

Would Not Recommend

Would not close the wire strippers stay open all time. If the wire strippers closed on their own the rating would be higher
