Review on πŸ”§ Enhance your Cable Stripping Experience with Jonard Tools CST-1900 Round Stripper, Ideal for Efficient and Accurate Jacket Removal, Fits 3/16" to 1 1/8" Diameter by Adam Gechem

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Pretty good tool but with some limitations.

This is a quality tool but its use is limited. Smaller cables are fine and the spiral wire stripping works great, but as the cable gets larger the spring tension isn't strong enough to hold it firmly in the cable. This results in an extremely inconsistent cut, and doing it slowly and pressing on it to maintain tension doesn't save time or make the job more efficient than using a box cutter. The small cutting head also broke. I don't blame the tool for this, I gave it to my colleague to use and I don't think he turned the knob when trying to strip the wire. However, it shows a lack of intuitive appeal. It's a really good tool if you understand the limitations and don't let anyone who doesn't know how to operate it come near. Cable with smaller size and sleeve requirements, it's a good tool to improve your work efficiency.

Pros
  • PATENTED DESIGN: The patented stripping mechanism offers a "spiral stripping mode" for stripping hard insulation.
Cons
  • Ugly packaging.
