Weidmuller Stripax Wire Stripping Tools
For this entry “Stripping” means the cutting and removal of the insulation of a wire conductor. After a conductor has been cut to length it is then prepared for the next step or for crimping. For this purpose, a specific length of the conductor insulation has to be removed, while preventing damage to the conductor. The length of the conductor insulation to be removed depends on the terminal clamping point or the crimp to be processed.
To maintain the rated insulation voltage the required wire stripping length is specified for every Weidmuller product. The stripping dimensions must be observed and neither the conductor nor the remaining insulation should be damaged. The lengths (specified in mm e.g. 6 + 0.5mm) must be maintained to be in accordance with rated insulation voltage. This also applies when using wire-end ferrules.
Weidmuller’s professional wire stripping tools guarantee perfect results due to precise adjust-ability of the tool to the corresponding insulation and the conductor cross-section. Precision wire stripping tools by Weidmüller guarantee that the user will always obtain consistent, reliable stripping results.
A big mistake is to use a stripping tool that is not matched to the insulation and cross-section of the conductor. Weidmuller offers hand-operated wire stripping tools that adjust automatically to the corresponding cross-section of the conductor. These tools are designed not to damage the conductor during stripping.
Weidmuller offers wire stripping tools for most wire types and gauges, but for this entry we will spot light The Weidmuller Stripax® wire stripping tool. The Weidmuller Stripax ® wire stripping tool guarantees a consistent stripping result which complies with DIN regulations. The Weidmuller Stripax ® wire stripping tool is rated for standard dimension PVC insulation. Any PVC insulation thicknesses deviating from normal can be set manually. The conductor stopper and integrated wire cutter allow highly versatile use of the tool.
