Wire Stripper Högert Technik HT1P187 180 mm for 0.2–6.0 mm² conductors, automatic

The automatic wire stripper Högert Technik HT1P187 is a hand tool designed for stripping insulation from electrical conductors with cross-sections from 0.2 to 6.0 mm². At 180 mm overall length, it combines automatic adjustment for various wire sizes with a build intended to protect conductor cores during the stripping process. The tool is suitable for work on solid and stranded wires and supports repeatable, consistent stripping performance for installation, repair and light production tasks.

Advantages

The Högert Technik HT1P187 features automatic wire gripping and cutting mechanisms that adapt to the selected conductor size, reducing the need for manual adjustment. Its mechanism is engineered to remove insulation cleanly without nicking or damaging the conductor strands, improving connection reliability. The compact 180 mm form factor offers balance between leverage and reach, making it practical for confined spaces while remaining comfortable for extended use.

Suitable for

• Electrical installation and maintenance of household and commercial wiring
• Repairing appliances and electronic devices with insulated leads
• Preparing wires for terminal connections, crimping and soldering
• DIY projects and repetitive stripping tasks in small workshops

Key specifications

• Wire cross-section range: 0.2–6.0 mm²
• Applicable wire types: solid and stranded conductors
• Overall length: 180 mm
• Automatic adjustment mechanism for multiple conductor sizes
• Insulation stripping without damaging conductor cores

How to use

Place the stripped wire section into the tool's jaw so that the intended insulation removal length aligns with the stop or marking. Squeeze the handles steadily to allow the automatic mechanism to grip and cut the insulation; continue to close the handles so the tool withdraws the insulation cleanly from the conductor. Release the handles to open the jaws and remove the stripped wire. For wires near the limits of the specified range, verify the result visually and, if necessary, repeat the operation or use a complementary tool for precise finishing.

Usage recommendations

Use the tool only on wires within the specified 0.2–6.0 mm² range. Inspect the conductor after stripping to ensure strands are intact; do not use the tool on live circuits. For optimal longevity, keep the mechanism clean and free of debris and store in a dry environment.
