Cable stripper YATO YT-2294 — for cables up to 2.6 mm, PVC handles, 165 mm length, black/orange

YATO YT-2294 is a handheld cable stripper designed to remove insulation from small wires and cables with a maximum diameter of 2.6 mm. The tool is 165 mm long and fitted with molded PVC handles for a secure grip. Its compact size and precise blade geometry are intended for electrical installation, repair tasks and detailed cable preparation in workshops and on-site service.

Advantages

The compact, 165 mm design allows access to tight spaces while maintaining leverage for controlled stripping. Molded PVC handles provide slip resistance and comfortable handling during repetitive use. The blade geometry is optimized for clean cuts on thin insulation, reducing damage to conductors. The tool’s small weight and size make it easy to carry in a technician’s pouch or toolbox.

Suitable for

• Stripping insulation from single conductors and small multi-core cables up to 2.6 mm in diameter
• Electrical installation and maintenance in residential and commercial settings
• Precision cable preparation for electronics assembly and repair
• Field service and mobile technicians requiring a compact stripping tool

Key specifications

• Maximum cable diameter: 2.6 mm
• Minimum AWG wire size: 10 AWG
• Overall length: 165 mm
• Handle material: PVC (polyvinyl chloride)
• Color: black and orange

How to use

Hold the cable stripper by the PVC handles and position the cable in the blade opening at the appropriate point for the required strip length. Apply gentle pressure and rotate or pull the tool according to the blade geometry to score and remove the insulation without cutting the conductor. For repeatable results, use a consistent angle and force when stripping multiple conductors. After use, wipe the blade area clean of residue and store the tool in a dry place.

Usage recommendations

Use this tool for cables within the specified diameter range and avoid forcing the tool on thicker conductors. Inspect the blade periodically for wear; replace the tool if cuts become uneven or if the insulation is consistently nicked. Wear appropriate eye protection when working with stripped wires and follow local safety standards for electrical work.
