Review on Klein Tools VDV110-061 Coaxial Cable Stripper with Radial Design for Enhanced Performance by Chad Aguirre

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works great, but not always the first time

Works great, that is when it works, which it most often does. I've used it maybe twenty times and turned down about a dozen of those cuts on the first or second try. My recommendation is to make sure the coax is *safely* pulled out to the sliding stop, keep applying pressure, and then twist it 5 or 6 times while holding that pressure. (Well, apply a little pressure—a swab will help.) Also, make sure the segment of coax cable you want to strip is really straight, about two or three inches from your work surface. When everything works correctly, the ends come out very clean and are optimized for use with a small compressor. You pass the train test.

Pros
  • Finger loop design allows for easy, controlled rotation
Cons
  • Communication with seller
