Technical information
Product description
Fast and completely safe insulation stripping is the key to any clean electrical installation job. Our 160 mm VDE wire stripping pliers are designed to let you remove plastic or rubber insulation flawlessly, with zero risk of nicking or damaging the internal copper strands.
Combining certified VDE protection with a fine adjustment mechanism, these pliers are an indispensable tool in every electrician’s kit.
Key Benefits and Product Quality:
- Certified VDE 1000V Protection (EN/IEC 60900)
Individually tested and fully compliant with the rigorous EN/IEC 60900 international standard. The insulated handles offer total safety and protection when working on live electrical circuits up to 1000 V AC.
- Brass Screw for Fine Precision Adjustment
An integrated brass knurled screw with a lock nut allows you to set the exact opening diameter for your specific wire or cable gauge. Once set, it guarantees consistent, fast, and precise wire stripping on repetitive jobs without harming the conductor.
- Premium Chrome-Vanadium (Cr-V) Steel & Opening Spring
Forged from durable Chrome-Vanadium (Cr-V) steel, these pliers deliver high wear resistance and long-lasting edge sharpness. The internal return spring automatically opens the jaws after each stroke, significantly speeding up workflow and reducing hand strain.
- Ergonomic Soft-Grip Handles
The ergonomic handles coated with soft Soft Grip material provide a comfortable, secure, and non-slip hold. Raised safety guards prevent your hand from accidentally sliding forward toward the uninsulated metal head.
Pro Tip: Adjust the stop screw so the blades cut only through the outer insulation layer without touching the copper wire underneath—ensuring maximum conductivity and circuit safety.
