Electrical Wire Strippers
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.
Steel strippers stay sharp with continuous use. 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.

Electrical-Insulating Squeeze-and-Strip Electrical Wire Strippers

Insulated handles protect against shock from accidental contact with live electrical circuits. These wire strippers are tested to 1,000 volts to meet IEC 60900 and ASTM F1505. Squeeze once to strip insulation and pull it off the wire.
Replacement blades include both the upper and lower blades.
Benchtop Automatic Electrical Wire Strippers


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.

Squeeze-and-Strip Building Cable Strippers

With just a squeeze, strip and remove outer insulation from your cable. These strippers require less effort than standard strippers or stripping knives because you don’t need to manually peel the insulation. The blade automatically adjusts to the outer diameter of your cable to remove a layer of insulation. They’re often used on NM-B cable (also known as Romex) since you can strip the cable jacket and the insulation on the individual wires without changing settings in between. Turn the adjustment knob to fine-tune the position of the blades so you don’t nick inner insulation, thin wires, or stranded wire. Set your strip length with the stop for consistent strips across multiple cables.

Armored Cable and Flexible Metal Conduit Strippers

Strip armored cable, such as BX and MC 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.
Strippers with a hand clamp hold your cable in place.
Squeeze-and-Strip Combination Electrical Wire Strippers and Crimpers

One squeeze strips insulation and pulls it off the wire. The blades automatically adjust to the wire size. Tool also crimps connectors.

Tools with a reference chart are marked with wire gauge and metric sizes.
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.
Steel tools stay sharp with continuous use. 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.
