knipex multistrip 10 – a versatile tool with patented mechanics

adjust yourself. isolate with one touch of the pliers. protect the driver

professional, technically correct wire stripping is very easy with these wire strippers because the main steps are fully automated: just insert the cable and slide up to the previously set length limiter. press the handle of the pliers and they do everything else themselves: cut the insulation, remove the insulation part. the mechanics by which the cutting depth of the stripping blade is adapted to the wire diameter and the thickness of all standard insulation materials is patented.

thanks to the straight blade, it is ideal for working with cables with single-layer insulation

single layer pvc insulation and many standard and special types of insulation are processed very well because the blades are straight and run parallel. due to the special movement of the blades, these wire strippers are not suitable for highly flexible and reinforced insulation materials, but rather only for single-layer insulated cable. the insulation is cut only as deep as necessary to remove the insulation layer. it effectively protects solid, stranded and fine-stranded conductors from damage.

excellent workload reduction, smooth mechanics, light weight

fully automatic wire strippers knipex 12 42 195 are appreciated among professional users in the electrical and electronics industry because they shorten the otherwise time-consuming wire stripping work. apart from the length limiter, nothing needs to be set up or fine-tuned. integrated shallow wire cutter means no tool is needed to cut the wire correctly during installation. the wire removal mechanism operated by the pliers handle works smoothly. thanks to the soft plastic zone of the handle, these very light wire strippers, weighing only 136 g, sit securely and comfortably in the hand.
