Stripping T&E

[m4tty]

Well......Snip end; but grip the two halves with each hand, and pull apart, to score mark. slip line conductors from outer, and snip off.

Unless I have the "auto" strippers handy - then I just use them.....

Hi KME

What auto strippers do you use?? out of interest and would you recommend them??

Thanks

The "CK" ones mate.

TBH, no, I wouldn`t get `em again. Fiddly, faffy, skin-nipping awkward things.

I`ll stick to the olde-fashionedy way, than you very much.

I've got some of those, they're pretty good, but I'd never try and use them to get the outer sheath off a T&E, not least because you'd not get the last inch or so off, and also I doubt you'd just slip the outer off anyway on many cables.

they say for 2.5, but they also work on 1.5 & 3c&e

and accoring to the website, they are no longer made

Thats them. They`ll strip the outer off 6mm Lurchio - not a problem.

But I don`t find `em that good, TBH. The little tension wheel constantly needs tightening, and if the insul. snippets drop into the well of the jaws, they won`t strip any more until you fish it out.

Further, stripping a cable in a back box is an absolute `mare.
