Review on Klein Tools 21051 Large Cable Stripper: Efficient Stripping for 2/0-250 MCM Cables by Pedro Movie

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great: Power tools and hand tools

I tried it out with a colleague and was immediately hooked. I mostly grind 3/0 so I removed the other grinding heads (1 set screw each) to make it lighter and so I can look inside the tool and see exactly how far I've ground. Bonus - in this state it can also be used as a sharp wire bending tool (just slide the wire through and twist with the tool's rounded edges). Makes very clean ends without damaging the conductors and also saves something on your wrist. If you strip a lot of large wires, you'll love this one. Also, I read a review that said it doesn't work well with simpull wire due to the lubricated outer casing - well, I'm here to say that once you get the hang of it, you can easily pull this stuff off. I was confused about the jacket at first but by my fifth cable or so I figured out how to get it working so have no fear if you're also a basic user.

Pros
  • Pleasant to use
Cons
  • Safety
