Cable stripper Weicon model 52000016 for cables 8–13 mm and conductors 0.5–6 mm²

Weicon model 52000016 cable stripper is a manual hand tool engineered for removing the outer sheath of round cables with diameters from 8 to 13 mm and for stripping insulation from conductors with cross-sections between 0.5 and 6 mm². The compact design and fixed cutting geometry allow controlled, repeatable insulation removal for electrical installation, maintenance and repair tasks where accurate conductor exposure is required before crimping, soldering or terminal connection.

Advantages

The tool provides precise stripping without damaging conductor strands by combining a guided blade action with an adjustable stop for consistent strip lengths. Its ergonomic handle gives a secure grip for manual operations and reduces hand fatigue during repeated use. The robust metal construction ensures dimensional stability and long service life under workshop and on-site conditions.

Suitable for

• Round power and control cables with outer diameters 8–13 mm
• Single and multi-core conductors with cross-section 0.5–6 mm²
• Electrical installation, panel building and junction box work
• Maintenance, repair and field service work on wiring and harnesses

Key specifications

• Cable outer diameter range: 8–13 mm
• Conductor cross-section range: 0.5–6 mm²
• Manual, handheld operation with guided blade
• Adjustable strip length stop for repeatable results
• Ergonomic handle for secure grip
• Durable metal construction suitable for workshop and field use

How to use

Place the cable in the stripping groove matching its outer diameter, set the adjustable stop to the required strip length, and clamp the handle to engage the blade. Rotate or move the tool according to the tool’s guidance to score and remove the outer sheath, then strip the conductor insulation to expose the required number of strands. Inspect the exposed conductor to ensure there is no damage to individual strands before proceeding to crimp or solder.

Usage recommendations

Use the tool only on cables and conductors within the specified diameter and cross-section ranges. Verify blade sharpness periodically and replace if nicked or dull to avoid conductor damage. For multi-strand conductors, remove insulation with steady, controlled movements and check continuity after termination. Store the tool in a dry environment to prevent corrosion and preserve cutting performance.
