20100307007 | Stripping Tool - A stripping tool removes the insulation on single-wire or multi-wire cables with two jaws, which are connected by common hinge axels to form a hollow body which can be opened for inserting a cable that is to be stripped. Near the ends of the jaws are fitted blades for a circular cut, and opposite of the blades, at the other end of the hinge axel, is fitted with a slitting knife situated in a guiding groove that is oriented diagonally in the hollow body. Recesses are formed in the longitudinal edges closing the hollow body, that, when the tool is closed, a cable to be cut longitudinally is guided in through the hollow body, by the guiding groove and the recesses, that it is neatly guided in the guiding groove along the slitting knife for the longitudinal cut without the need to additionally guide the cable with one's fingers. | 12-09-2010 |
