Coaxial Cable Stripper Opticum AX S 01 by opticum — manual tool for preparing coax cables

Opticum AX S 01 coaxial cable stripper by opticum is a manual tool designed for precise preparation of coaxial cables before connector installation. The tool enables controlled removal of the outer jacket and the dielectric to expose the inner conductor and shielding, helping to achieve consistent cable ends for reliable terminations. It is compact and intended for use both in the field and in workshop environments where coaxial cable preparation is required for installations, repairs and connector fittings.

Advantages

The Opticum AX S 01 provides adjustable stripping depth and stable blade guidance to reduce the risk of damaging the conductor. Its manual operation does not require power, which makes it convenient for on-site use. The tool's compact form factor and straightforward adjustment mechanism support repeatable results across multiple cable types. Constructed for repeated use, it offers a simple maintenance routine with replaceable cutting elements.

Suitable for

• Preparing coaxial cables for TV, satellite and radio frequency installations
• Field service and on-site repairs where powered tools are impractical
• Workshop connector assembly and pre-termination cable preparation
• Training and testing cable termination procedures

Key specifications

• Manual stripping tool for coaxial cables
• Adjustable stripping depth for outer jacket and dielectric
• Stable blade guidance for repeatable cuts
• Compact, handheld design for portability
• Replaceable cutting blades for extended service life

How to use

Place the coaxial cable into the stripper's cable groove and set the cutting depth according to the cable diameter and desired removal length. Rotate the tool around the cable to score and remove the outer jacket, then adjust the blade to expose the dielectric and inner conductor as required. Inspect the stripped end visually to ensure the conductor and shielding are undamaged before fitting a connector. Follow the manufacturer's guidance for blade adjustments and replacement intervals to maintain consistent performance.

Usage recommendations

Use the Opticum AX S 01 with appropriate personal protective equipment and verify blade sharpness before use. Match the stripping depth to the specific coaxial cable construction and confirm conductor integrity after stripping to ensure reliable connector terminations.
