Ergonomic design for maximum comfortCurved handles help reduce wrist fatigueTextured sleeves with extra cushioning for added comfortStrips 22-30 AWG solid, 24-32 AWG strandedInvented and manufactured at our Sycamore, Illinois facility, the T-Stripper Wire Stripper line is the leading brand name in the world. Designed for total comfort and wire stripping; the stripper features a Thumb-Valley thumb guide that offers comfort and focuses on kinetic energy for faster stripping. The textured non-slip grips helps in reducing stress on the hands and the narrow plier nose facilitates holding and twisting of wires in hard-to-reach places. They were specifically designed for size 10 AWG, 18 AWG solid wires, and the shear-cut bolt cutters slice through bolts quickly. The Pocket-Locket mechanism holds the stripper tightly when the tool is slipped from the hands and it is color coded for easy reference.
