Jonard ToolsST-450 Adjustable Precision Wire Stripper, 26-36 AWG

About the only very fine-gauge wire stripper I could find. It goes down to 36 gauge, though I only used it for a 32-gauge wire. It worked fine, but required a little practice to get the grip tight enough to cut the insulation, but not so tight as to make it impossible to pull out. Particularly useful for model building (railroads, miniature scenes, etc.), where the wires on things like street lights or tiny motors are very fine. For $50, it should work without binding the wire, but I was satisfied that, with practice, it worked okay.

I originally found one of these in a thrift store, wore it out, and bought a new one. I wasn't expecting it to be sturdy enough to actually get the job done, but I was wrong! It works really well. I use Teflon-coated wire, which is extremely slippery and notoriously difficult to strip. This thing makes it so much easier. My only complaint is that I wish they would round the edges at the bottom where it sits in your hand. Those sharp corners will literally tear a gash in your palm if you're stripping wire for as many hours as I do. I taped a piece of foam to the bottom, which definitely helps. I suppose one could wear gloves while using it, too. I hate working with gloves, so they foam hack turned this helpful tool into the perfect one for the job.

I have been pleased with how well this tool works on fine wire.

I use 30 AWG. wire for point-to-point wiring in my projects. I used to use "No-Nik" strippers, but they don't make them anymore. This is a good stripper, takes a little more force than I'd like to pull the wire through the stripping section, but these are adjustable and work so no complaints.

The concept of this tool is intriguing, as it has adjustable wire gauge settings, and the length of the strip is adjustable. The problem I believe is that this tool has 4 cutting blades so you are ending up putting a round peg into a square hole. I was using this on 24 gauge stranded data wire in which it also pulled several stands of wire with the strip. Even if I set the wire gauge setting to 22 gauge it would grab a few strands with it. So I returned mine.Maybe it would work ok on solid wire.

Easy to,use, mini lighting

I have tried many wire strippers for 28 gauge wire, all of them had torn the strands of wire. This is the only one that, when used correctly will remove the jacket cleanly.

It's ok for what it does but when you're using it on 30awg wire, it sometimes cuts the wire, and sometimes doesn't cut through all the insulation. This might just be because 30AWG is tough to strip.

Somehow I got a black color one.I have used this one before and bought again as it broke. This stripper is not as strong as scissor shaped ones.I took out 2 stars as I wanted to have a yellow one.

Lo uso para pelar los 8 cables de un cable ethernet. Agarro cada cablecito con un pincer de punio, y el Jonard es bien efectivo en pelarlo .

only stripper I found down to 36 gauge but will miss some strips, technique is important.

works great.

Works easily and well, good length/ depth stripper
