Wire insulation stripper pliers HOGERT HT1P187 — for conductors 0.2–6.0 mm², strip length 0–2.8 mm, SK5 blades

HOGERT HT1P187 is a wire insulation stripper pliers designed for precise and repeatable stripping of single and multi-strand conductors with cross-sections from 0.2 to 6.0 mm². The tool features an adjustable stop for setting strip length between 0 and 2.8 mm and is equipped with wear-resistant SK5 blades that deliver clean cuts and long service life. Compact dimensions and an ergonomic grip make the pliers practical for professional electrical installation, repair and routine maintenance tasks.

Advantages

The adjustable strip length control allows accurate and consistent results across a wide range of conductor sizes. SK5 blades provide high hardness and edge retention for precise insulation removal without damaging conductor strands. The pliers combine compact size with ergonomic handles to improve access in confined spaces and reduce hand fatigue during repetitive stripping operations. Built for repeatability, the tool is suitable for both fieldwork and workshop conditions.

Suitable for

• Stripping insulation from solid and stranded copper conductors 0.2–6.0 mm²
• Electrical installation and junction box wiring
• Appliance repair and electronic assembly requiring short strip lengths
• Maintenance tasks in industrial or residential environments

Key specifications

• Conductor capacity: 0.2–6.0 mm²
• Adjustable strip length: 0–2.8 mm
• Blade material: SK5 high-carbon steel
• Tool type: manual insulation stripper pliers
• Grip: ergonomic handles for comfortable repeated use

How to use

Select the appropriate conductor size and adjust the strip length stop to the required value within the 0–2.8 mm range. Place the conductor in the stripping jaws, clamp gently so the blades cut only the insulation, then pull the tool or the wire to remove the sheath cleanly. For multi-strand conductors, verify that strands remain intact after stripping and repeat with a finer setting if necessary. Clean and inspect the blades regularly and store the pliers in a dry place to maintain blade condition.

Usage recommendations

For consistent results, set the strip length once for similar wires and perform a test strip on a scrap conductor before working on final connections. Do not use the pliers on live circuits; ensure power is disconnected. Periodically sharpen or replace blades if stripping quality deteriorates, and avoid cutting hardened or steel wires to prevent blade damage.
