Knipex 12 42 195 Multistrip 10 Automatic Insulation Stripper 195mm

The Knipex 12 42 195 Multistrip 10 is a fully automatic insulation stripper 195 mm in length, designed to strip single-layer insulated cables from 0.03 to 10.0 mm² (AWG 32-8) with a single squeeze of the handles. Its patented self-adjusting blade mechanism adapts automatically to conductor diameter and insulation thickness, eliminating manual readjustment between cables. The recessed wire cutter and replaceable blade block make it a reliable choice for both workshop and industrial production environments.

Features and benefits:

• Fully automatic adaptation to fine-stranded conductors with standard single-layer insulation across the entire range of 0.03 to 10.0 mm² - no readjustment required between different cable sizes (at constant temperatures)
• Patented blade mechanism automatically matches cutting depth to conductor diameter and insulation thickness for consistent, repeatable results
• Cuts insulation without damaging the conductor - straight parallel blades optimised for single-layer PVC and a wide range of standard insulation materials
• Steel clamping jaws grip the cable securely and prevent slipping without marking or damaging the remaining insulation
• Recessed wire cutter built into the tool head
• Replaceable blade block and length stop for long service life and easy maintenance
• Lightweight construction with soft-zone grip insert for reduced fatigue and secure handling

Applications:

• Electrical panel wiring and control cabinet assembly requiring consistent strip lengths on a variety of conductor cross-sections
• Cable harness production and batch wire preparation where repeated stripping without readjustment saves significant time
• Building installation work involving solid and stranded single-layer insulated cables up to 10 mm²
• Industrial maintenance and machine wiring where process reliability and conductor integrity are critical
• Prototype and small-batch electronics wiring using fine-stranded conductors down to 0.03 mm² (AWG 32)
