ENGINEERprecision wire strippers for thin gauge wire, professional grade, super sharp carbon steel jaws. Made in Japan. pa-06

The precision and quality of Engineer tools is just impeccable and they often have small innovative/thoughtful features. I've seen a few of their pliers and nippers and all were top notch, comparable in every way to the most esteemed tools from USA, Germany, and Sweden. I've used a lot of different strippers and thought I had some of the best, but wow, these are just buttery goodness like I didn't know was possible. The gauge markings on this one are for stranded, so keep that in mind. It doesn't list solid conductors on the tool and the metric markings are the actual hole diameter (not wire diameter)...the back side is unmarked. Nice light spring action, which is so much better than stronger springs, and the hinge adjustment is excellent. Mine came perfect out of the box but if you need to adjust it for preference or precision down the road, be sure to do it properly (instructions available on their website). Grips are comfortable and soft with some tack/grip, little funky design. The locking tab has play in it but doesn't move unless you tell it to, works great. This is the first stripper I've owned that had absolutely no need for removal of micro burrs or touch-ups of the cutting surfaces, very well done. The tips do not have serrations and do not line up perfectly parallel/square, which is weird, but I don't know if there is some reason for that. One of the best things about this particular model is that it covers a great range that allows you do strip finer sizes but still goes down to some sizes that are more typical in larger circuits and power supplies, plus it's compact compared to some. This will be a do-all tool for me about 95% of the time and I won't miss needing two strippers within reach. I'm not sure why Engineer tools aren't more popular than they are because they are just fantastic quality. More known for their niche screw removal pliers, I guess, and those have shifted into the "Vam-plier" marketing name lately. I'd put these and the Engineer nippers on par with anything I've seen from Knipex, Wiha, Wera, Wiss/Cooper Group, etc. and they're absolutely a step or two above Xuron, GB, Klein, Greenlee, etc...way better than the normal CHP/Hakko stuff. Worth a slot on your bench or box.

Works great and get cleanly stripped wire without damage to any of the strands. The fit and finish is great without any play yet still smooth. Wish the rubber pads on the handles were more rounded off on edges but even they are of high quality.

Bought these after being gobsmacked with how good their crimpers are. Was not disappointed. I have a fair amount of 30 AWG wire (headphones, USB strands etc) that I use and my old strippers just couldn't do this gauge well. These are perfect. Cuts the jacket without damaging the wire and comes cleanly off. Not only that, the cutters at the back of these cut well, on my other stripper, the cutter won't cleanly cut all the strands leaving you to either reach for your nippers or rip the wire.I'm replacing my whole kit with their tools. Yep. They're that good.

It fits comfortably in the hand and makes wire stripping an easy task without hard pulling. In my opinion it is worth the cost against 'cheap and cheerful' alternatives. I wish I had bought this tool years ago but am glad I have it now.

Made in Japan, I think there made by the same people who make swords. They are extremely sharp and precisionly made.there incredible.

This tool is great, strips wire extremely well and is very small.though it did chip the very first time I cut wire with it.It also only has printed wire gauge instead of being stamped in the item and it is only on one side, which may be a drawback for some.I would give it five stars if the cutter did not chip on the very first time of use.

Owned two other top US known brands, so for me this smaller size with it’s smooth action, just right recoil spring, not forgetting those comfortable easy grips, these are the best available to my knowledge. Smallest wire strips are precise. Yah, I would recommend it, but I think it’s underpriced!

Low Voltage business owner that strips wire every day. These things are my favorites. I used Klein for years (and still do) but these strippers are the best for 22-26 gauge and work great on 18 gauge too. I like them so well I am ordering them for my crew.

It's a very good tool and is doing his job very well. It's made in Japan and that won't fail!

Je l'utilise régulièrement pour mes montages et réparations électroniques. J'apprécie sa prise en main et sa précision. La coupe est franche, nette et précise. Un outil de haute qualité dont je ne peux plus m'en passer. Ces outils japonais sont un must!!!

Bra köp, gör exakt det den ska göra.

Utmärkt för att skala kablar med hög precision, eggen är sylvass. och lätt att se vart snittet hamnar.

Excellente Abisolierzange für Professionellen wie auch Bastler Gebrauch. Preis ist gerechtfertigt, das ist nämlich kein Schrott. Hatte vorher 2x eine von Wiha die auseinanderviel. Benutze Sie im Professionellen Bereich. Die Engineer Px xxx serie hat viele excellente Zangen fuer Abisolier und Crimp Anwendungen. Ich kaufe nur noch diese.
