Knipex 13 66 180 StriX Insulation Stripper with Cable Shears 180mm

The Knipex 13 66 180 StriX Insulation Stripper with Cable Shears (180 mm) combines two essential electrical installation tools in a single instrument. It strips solid, stranded, and fine-stranded conductors with plastic or rubber insulation up to O 5 mm (10 mm2 cross-section), and its integrated cable shears cut Cu and Al cables up to O 15 mm cleanly and crimp-free. VDE-tested multi-component insulated handles and a slim profile make it suited for professional electrical work in confined spaces.
