Stripping Pliers OEM 5534 for Network Cables — blade sizes 2.0 mm and 0.9 mm

Stripping Pliers OEM 5534 for Network Cables are manual cable preparation tools designed to remove insulation from network and telecom cables with controlled precision. The pliers incorporate two blade openings sized at 2.0 mm and 0.9 mm to suit different jacket and conductor diameters, enabling clean exposure of conductors for connector termination and maintenance tasks. The tool is compact and intended for repeated use in installation and repair workflows for RJ45 and RJ11 cable preparation.

Advantages

The dual-blade design provides flexibility to strip both outer jackets and smaller conductor insulations without changing tools. Precise blade clearances reduce the risk of conductor nicks, supporting reliable terminations. The pliers’ hand-operated mechanism offers tactile control for repeatable stripping depth, while the compact form factor fits into technician toolkits and on-site bags.

Suitable for

• Preparing CAT5e, CAT6 and telephone cables for RJ45/RJ11 termination
• Field cable installation, maintenance and repair tasks
• Workshops and service vans where compact, reliable stripping is required

Key specifications

• Blade sizes: 2.0 mm and 0.9 mm for different insulation thicknesses
• Hand-operated pliers suitable for repeated manual stripping
• Compact ergonomic body for portable use
• Material: metal blades with insulated handles (standard construction for hand tools)

How to use

Place the cable jacket into the appropriate blade opening (use 2.0 mm for thicker jackets and 0.9 mm for thinner conductor insulation). Squeeze the pliers gently to cut only the insulation, then rotate the tool or pull the cut section away to remove the jacket and expose conductors. Inspect conductors visually to ensure there are no nicks before proceeding to connector termination. For safety, keep fingers away from the cutting edges and store the pliers in a closed position when not in use.

Usage recommendations

Use the 2.0 mm opening for outer jackets and the 0.9 mm opening for individual conductor insulation. Test on a scrap piece of the same cable type to set your preferred pressure and avoid conductor damage. Periodically check blade condition and replace the tool if blades become dull to maintain clean, reliable stripping results.
