Electrician's Scissors Beta Tools 1128BSX with Sheath — cutting and wire stripping function

Beta Tools electrician's scissors 1128BSX with sheath are compact hand scissors designed for electrical work. The tool combines sharp cutting blades with a built-in wire opening/stripping feature to trim insulation, cut small cables and perform basic cable preparation. Delivered with a protective sheath, these electrician's scissors are intended for installation, maintenance and repair tasks where a compact, multi-function cutting tool is required.

Advantages

The scissors integrate a cutting edge and a wire-stripping notch in a single compact tool, reducing the need to switch instruments during routine electrical jobs. Hardened blades offer consistent cutting performance on insulation and soft conductor cores, while the included sheath provides safe storage and quick access on a belt. The tool's size and balanced geometry enable controlled cuts in confined spaces and on-site conditions.

Suitable for

• Trimming and cutting electrical insulation and small-diameter cables
• Basic wire stripping and opening of conductor jackets
• On-site electrical installation and maintenance work
• Technician and electrician tool kits for repair and service tasks

Key specifications

• Type: electrician's scissors with integrated wire-stripping notch
• Blade material: hardened cutting edges suitable for insulation and soft conductors
• Functionality: cutting, trimming and basic wire stripping
• Form factor: compact hand scissors with ergonomic handling geometry
• Accessory: protective sheath for safe storage and transport

How to use

Hold the scissors by the handles and position the blade to the desired cutting point on insulation or cable. For stripping, place the conductor into the dedicated notch, apply light pressure to abrade the insulation and then pull the insulation off along the conductor. Use short controlled cuts when trimming conductors or cable jackets to avoid nicking the conductor cores. After use, clean off residue from blades if necessary and return the scissors to the sheath for safe storage.

Usage recommendations

Use the scissors only on de-energized cables and confirm absence of voltage before working. For multi-core or large-diameter power cables, use dedicated stripping and cable-cutting tools. Regularly inspect blade condition and replace the tool when cutting performance deteriorates or if nicks appear to avoid conductor damage.
