The versatile IDEAL Electrical 45-096 Stripmaster Wire Stripper is the industry standard. It incorporates a gripper that firmly holds the wire in a center-line position with the stripping hole. The lever action of the stripper offers a mechanical advantage that makes stripping easier. This aids in production applications and reduces operator fatigue. One squeeze strips the wire clean. The jaws are automatically held open to allow removal of the wire without damaging its end. This stripper virtually eliminates all nicking, cutting or fraying on non-precision wire..
