Stripping pliers Wiha Professional electric Red Yellow 160 mm 220 g

Stripping pliers Wiha Professional electric Red Yellow 160 mm 220 g are precision tools for removing insulation from electrical conductors. With a 160 mm overall length and a weight of 220 g, these pliers combine compact dimensions with robust construction. The red and yellow insulated handles identify the tool for electrical work and the chrome-plated surface increases corrosion resistance. Each plier is individually tested for electrical safety at 10,000 V AC and approved for use up to 1,000 V AC.

Advantages

The tool increases work efficiency through a wide range of adjustment options that allow stripping multiple cross-sections. An integrated opening spring reduces strain during repetitive tasks, supporting safer continuous use. The chrome-plated plier surface enhances durability and helps lower long-term costs by protecting against corrosion. Electrical safety testing ensures reliable protection for the user when working on live-voltage circuits within the approved rating.

Suitable for

• Stripping insulation from copper and other common electrical conductors
• Electrical installation and maintenance work
• Professional electrician tasks and precise DIY electrical projects
• Work requiring insulated hand tools rated for up to 1,000 V AC

How to use

Choose the appropriate stripping setting for the conductor cross-section, place the wire in the stripping jaws, squeeze the handles to cut the insulation and pull to remove the sleeve without damaging the conductor. Use the opening spring to control repetitive operations with less hand strain. Ensure the setting is correct for wire size before each operation to achieve clean stripping results.

Usage recommendations

Use only within the approved electrical rating (up to 1,000 V AC). Inspect insulation on the handles before each use, keep the chrome-plated surfaces clean and dry to prevent corrosion, and store the pliers in a dry place. For safe operation on live circuits follow applicable safety standards and wear necessary personal protective equipment.
