0:45 the reason why they're screwless and still cut clean is bc there's a tilted blade inside the cutter hole they that digs into the threads of the screw giving u a much cleaner cut.

I strip 10 stranded with these and haven't had any issues

@elc2k385 9 ай бұрын

absolutely. i usebthe 12awg stranded hole to perfectly and super easily strip 10awg stranded. I love the lock on this tool, too. The milwaukee 7 in 1 stripper's "lock" is terrible.

Mine just arrived today ($80 aud off Amazon, or $199 at total tools if you miss Amazon pricing), and I LOVE them.

Love these. Not quite as smooth to twist heavier gage as a pair of lineman’s, but my favorite multi stripper.

PSA: WD40 is not a lubricant, and worse, the solvent will wash away lubricant. Lithium grease is the gold standard for metal-on-metal (as you can see in car doors), and a silicone lubricant will work too, but both of those will take a little work clean up because they're liquidy. Dry PTFE lubricant (often used in door locks) will carry powdered lubricant into the joint with a liquid solvent that evaporates, leaving less mess to clean, and being less sticky for dust and debris. Keep up the good reviews!!

Agreed. I just went through this with my pair. That squeak was driving me batty! Oil the cutting blades and not the pivot. The blades are what is squeaking. I just used 3 in 1 and it went away immediately.

WD40 Is not a lubricant, My Friend. If you use an actual oil, such as 3 in 1 or something similar, you’ll get much better results. Love the videos!

@Failsafeman100 10 ай бұрын

WD40 is definitely a lubricant! Just not its primary intended purpose.

@scottstoolthoughts3190 10 ай бұрын

@@Failsafeman100 Sure. You can use water as a lubricant. Doesn’t mean you should be lubing moving parts with it. WD has absolutely no staying power.

@Failsafeman100 10 ай бұрын

@@scottstoolthoughts3190 WD40 isn't ideal for lubricating pliers and would never be my first choice for that, but it will take the squeak out of them for a good while. The solvents will eventually disspate but the residual deposits of the oily compounds will keep the joint in working order, not as well as grease, but better than nothing

I prefer th Super Lube needle nose pen style oil when it comes to hand tools. Always works great and a percision oil pen is perfect for avoiding oil spreading to unneeded areas.

You can also try Corrosion X. We use it daily in aviation on the planes as a lubricant and…you guessed it, Anti Corrosion I know many A&P mechanics myself included who give their tools a quick wipe down once a month with the Corrosion X, all of our stuff still looks and feels great 👍🏼 Just a suggestion to consider

@rat8736 8 ай бұрын

i have this wire stripper and my only wish would be that the cutter was where the needle nose head is, since alot of the time i have to get into cramped fuse boxes and other boxes or areas where i cant get this strippers cutter to where i want to cut/strip. otherwise love them

Was just telling my classmate on the way home from our electricians course that these babies would be my number one choice if price were no issue. And it's February 29th! The absolute last day (Leap Day) that I can subscribe to your newsletter in order to be in the drawing for them! It's fated.

The Very Best Wire Strippers, were the Vaco 1930, for Crimping un-insulated Terminals and the Vaco 1963, for Crimping insulated terminals. Both had Wire Cutters, Strippers for wire, and a small SAE Bolt Cutters. The cutters were at the tip of the tool, which it made it easy to cut a wire in a Panel for reworking. Unfortunately Vaco was bought out, and the company refused to reintroduce them.

Love these strippers! My favorite choice when servicing pole lights and wall packs. Makes stripping old corroded insulation off 277-480v circuits in the 110+ degree Vegas heat a breeze.

Working on Class 8 trucks , I cut the nose plier off and milled the body . It often interfered in my work space .

@samuelgagnon4853 3 ай бұрын

There is a notch also near the end of the pliers to make perfect hooks too.

Can these strip the outer jacket off of romex? It looks that way there aren't any indications printed on it to suggest it can.

@philmaples9865 2 ай бұрын

The squeak is coming from the cutting blades and not from the pivot. Just found this out on my own pair a couple days ago.

Would this replace lineman's? Like can I buy this and not have to buy a pair of lineman's?

@ZackMeetsWorld 10 ай бұрын

A crimping tool will always be better. You’re not supposed to use the included crimper on hand tools with insulated crimps. Only with aircraft cable and bonding crimps.

I took your advice and bought a parodies and after about a month of use I was cutting and 832 screw and now the screw was extracted but it's not springy anymore like it was it's really made me mad

Este e toda série 13 72 200 e 13 76 200 são os melhores alicates que já usei porque em muitas situações é impossível fazer uso de decapador e crimpador. Só chaves e alicates tem acesso.

@madjackgamingandfitness498 2 ай бұрын

These are great. But not perfect. After using them for a while I would’ve preferred crimping options over the plier end, they are not suitable for breaking and tightening fasteners and will slip easily because they just aren’t made for it, a needle tip for grabbing and bending would’ve been more preferable even. I like mine, but the fact I have to carry a crimping plier secondary for work just shows they aren’t worth the price.

its very expensive to buy cheap tools, better do it right the first time and keep them a lifetime, your children will inherent them and they will still be in good shape

these are not the best. if you are installing home wiring only they may be the best. for everyone who does control wiring, kobalt makes a better pair for much less. it reqires some adjusting first but for 25$ and the fact that it strips from 22awg to 10awg i much prefer them. i even prefer the bypass wire cutting on the kobalts better.
