Product Description
Wire stripper with cable shears – two essential electrical installations tools in one pair of pliers. Integrated cable shears for the clean cutting of Cu- and Al-cables without crushing. Cutting edges additionally induction-hardened, cutting edge hardness approx. 57 HRC. Universal adjustment of the stripping blades by means of a knurled screw. Slim dimensions for easy access. Stripping of single-, multi- and fine stranded conductors with plastic or rubber insulation up to Ø 5 mm or 10 mm² cross-section. Graduated jaw provides a visual orientation aid when stripping wire in standard lengths (11 mm and 16 mm).

 | KNIPEX StriX insulation stripper with cable cutter 13 66 180, chrome plated: two important tools in one Cutting and stripping: KNIPEX StriX, chrome-plated – two indispensable tools for electrical installation in one pair of pliers The KNIPEX StriX is real all-rounder: It is both a conventional insulation stripper (with knurled screw and lock nut for manual and reliable adjustment of the conductor diameter), as well as a highly efficient cable cutter. As an insulation stripper, it is suitable for solid, multi-strand and fine-stranded conductors with plastic or rubber insulations up to a maximum diameter of 5 mm (approx. 10 mm² conductor cross section). The classic StriX has undergone useful innovations: The stripping part features steps in the jaw that help when stripping constant lengths (11 mm or 16 mm). It also serves as a professional cable cutter: The cutting edge cuts copper and aluminium cables up to Ø 15 mm (5 x 2.5 mm² cable cross-section). |
Long service life: faithful helper for many years
Typical KNIPEX: The StriX insulation stripper with cable cutter is forged from special tool steel and is multi-stage oil hardened. The bolted joint ensures precise movement of the pliers without handle wobble. In other words: The KNIPEX StriX makes work easier – for many years!
Short overview
- Versatile for single, multi-strand and fine-stranded conductors with plastic or rubber insulation
- Reliably strips up to max. Ø 5 mm or 10 mm² conductor cross-section
- Practical steps in the jaws as an orientation aid for stripping constant lengths
- Easy adjustment to the wire or strand diameter using the knurled screw and lock nut
- Non-slip shear blade for cutting copper and aluminium cables up to Ø 15 mm (5 x 2.5 mm²)
- Slim design for easy access
- Bolted joint: precise action with no handle wobble
- High-grade special tool steel, forged, multistage oil-hardened
Multi-stage oil-hardened precision cutting edges. The shear blade with precision edge is oil-hardened in several stages and cuts copper and aluminium cables up to Ø 15 mm (5 x 2.5mm²) without crushing and with little effort.
The KNIPEX StriX cuts cleanly and without crushing and strips without damage – with only one pair of pliers
Knurled screw with lock nut. The stripping blades can be adjusted with the knurled screw (top). Locking via the lock nut (between the jaws) prevents unintentional shifting.
Optical orientation aid. The steps in the jaws serve as length markings and help with repeat stripping of common lengths (11 mm and 16 mm).
