EMTOP Wire Stripping Pliers 6in 160mm EPLRW0611

Wire stripping pliers measuring 6 in (160mm), the everyday tool for taking insulation off conductors cleanly before a termination. Electricians, panel builders and appliance repairers use them all day, so the size and balance matter more than any single feature.

The head is polished and treated with anti-rust oil, which keeps the stripping notches free of corrosion in humid stores and vehicle boxes. A two-colour handle gives a positive hold, and the compact length lets the tool work inside a consumer unit or control panel without fouling neighbouring cores.

Use it for stripping single core and flexible cable, preparing conductors for terminals, connectors and lugs, and general electrical repair work. Match the notch to the conductor size so the copper is not nicked, as a scored strand is where a break eventually starts. Twist the stripped conductor rather than leaving the strands fanned out before it enters a terminal, and give every connection a gentle pull test once the screw is tight.
