IRWIN Vise-Grip Wire Stripper, 2 Inch Jaw, Cuts 10-24 AWG, ProTouch for Comfort, Blue (2078300)

This is an excellent wire stripper. I use it for 18 to 24 AWG wires and so far it has held up well. It is easy to adjust for these smaller wire gauges and gives excellent results without ripping off any strands of wire. The wire cutter part works OK too, but of course due to its location, it's not as easy to use as a dedicated wire cutter tool, but it will still cut your thinner wires without any difficulties. It is of excellent quality and it has held up well (so far).

I always thought these were kinda gimmicky. I had a ancient one superficially similar to this (individual die slots, same kind of action) and it never worked great, but several review videos persuaded me to try this one. Wow. From being able to gang-strip several wires at once and not nick the conductors to a little trick to peel a second spot on a wire to let me solder on a tap wire (always struggled with that before) and not having to think about wire size and carefully lay the wire into the appropriate groove, this seems like it's almost perfect. Quick, simple and and repetitive (with the strip gage/stop) to strip cords and individual wires. (It might struggle with the very short conductors needed for attaching cord plugs on heavy cords. but the only tool I ever found that did this well was an ancient T&B stripper that had the end of the pliers bent over at 90 degrees--sadly i broke it after about 30 years doing something dumb and can't find anything like it today.) This is thoughtfully designed to fit the hand (not open so wide it's hard to hold and operate), with comfortable plastic grips--smooth, nicely textured and some grooves. It has a large opening for wires/cables, and aggressive jaws to hold the jacket. I have no idea if the two cutting blades will wear (or really, how fast) or need to be replaced at some point. For the moment it's delivering nice clean cuts. (Same uncertainty about the enclosed mechanism that seems to control the cycle--if this wears will the thing degrade or stop working altogether? No idea. Hope not. This is trying to be my new favorite tool (but I have a short attention span.) The Cutter works but it's now one of a dozen so probably not going to get used a lot. The crimper is a little confusing but might be ok once i figure it out. Until then I have a couple of others that seem to be working fine. (located on the inside of the handles may be a bad idea for wire/terminal placement during crimping and for leverage but I haven't tested this function yet)

Great tool, very well designed. I bought this for one job and find I am using more than I thought I would. I recommend it.

Awesome tool to have , works great!!

They’re my favorite automatice wire strippers. They strip the sheathing from multi strand wire, then they’ll strip the wires themselves. I do marine electrical, they’re the first ones I go for, and I’m disappointed if I have to use any others or if I’m in an area where I can’t use these. I’ve tried the harbor freight sets, the Milwaukee sets, and these are the best.

These are awesome. Self adjusting and saves time and money 👍

Been watching youtubers tell me to use this type of wire stripper for years. Finally got them, and they do not disappoint.

The IRWIN VISE-GRIP Wire Stripper is an outstanding tool that makes handling electrical work a breeze. I recently added this to my toolkit, and it has quickly become an essential part of my gear. The build quality of the wire stripper is top-notch. It feels sturdy and well-constructed, with a comfortable grip that makes it easy to use for extended periods. The precision-ground stripping jaws are incredibly effective, allowing for clean and accurate stripping of various wire gauges without nicking or damaging the conductor. One of the features I appreciate most is the adjustable stopper, which ensures consistent stripping length and improves efficiency. The built-in wire cutter is sharp and precise, making it easy to trim wires neatly. The ergonomic design of the handles provides excellent leverage and reduces hand fatigue, which is especially useful during long projects. The tool also has a built-in spring-loaded mechanism that makes it easy to use with minimal effort. Overall, the IRWIN VISE-GRIP Wire Stripper offers exceptional performance, durability, and ease of use. It’s a reliable tool for both professionals and DIY enthusiasts. Highly recommended for anyone needing a high-quality wire stripper that delivers consistent and precise results!

I purchased this product after watching it's video on You Tube . I loved it esp as a DIY user . Now you need not struggle with wire stripping process and cutting is very clean and effortless. You can strip multiple wire easily. It's costly as it is imported from USA and not made in China

Facile a utilisé aussi bien pour les travaux électriques que électronique.

Excelente herramienta para pelar cables, la calidad es muy buena con buenos acabados, he visto otras marcas físicamente y está es de las mejores, me ha resultado muy funcional

Works beautifully, it even cuts pretty good

Álles kleiner dan 2,5 mm² slipt. Deze standaardmaat kun je alleen strippen door tang op zijn strakst in te stellen. Het mesje is niet vervangbaar. Grote lompe tang die in de weg ligt tov mijn andere elektra gereedschap. IkDit product is een dure gimmick.
