Review on HORUSDY Stripping Self Adjusting Automatic 0 2 6 0Mm² by Jeff Vasquez

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not as strong as expected

I ordered this tool after a cheap Harbor Freight wire stripper broke. I figured the metal construction and larger size would make it easy to strip 10 and 12 gauge wire. NOT RIGHT! When I first used the tool, the jaw holding the insulated side of the strip didn't grip securely, allowing the wire to slip through instead of the strip. I manually adjusted the thumbscrew several times to increase the tension, but the threads on the brass adjustment screw broke off before the wire. All tension is gone except for my body. I'm neither Superman nor the Hulk, so I wasn't expecting to damage the tool with my bare hands within minutes of opening the box. I used pliers to remove the screw and replaced it with a 5/16 set screw.

Pros
  • Great construction
Cons
  • So
