Check the cable sheath before use
Start by checking the outside diameter of the complete cable. Then check the thickness of the sheath you need to remove. The 2.5–11 mm range and 1 mm thickness limit describe two different checks when choosing a tool.
Also review the cable type and its construction. A conductor’s mm² size does not tell you the finished cable diameter. Use the cable data sheet and the tool’s guide to check the match, especially where the cable has special insulation.
This tool’s stated task is sheath removal. For glass-fibre cables, check the cable maker’s guidance for the layers beneath that sheath as well.
Compare related stripping tools
If you need to strip a larger cable or thicker insulation, see the WIREFOX-D 40. That model covers 4.5–40 mm cable diameters and insulation up to 4.5 mm thick. It also offers round, lengthwise and spiral cuts.
For stripping single wires, compare WIREFOX 10. Check its wire range and cable requirements against your job before choosing between the tools.
