Cable Stripping Tool for Jackets & Sheaths of LV HV Cables | Ripley US01

The Jointing tool ensures safer and easier cable preparation with reduced Health & Safety risks and accidents including cuts and lacerations – the innovative tool supports “no open blade policies” for the stripping of outer cable jackets. The inserts reduce friction during rotation around the LV HV cable and an integral bar forces the cutting blade into optimal position. An ergonomic handle reduces worker fatigue for repetitive cable stripping in the field. The Ripley US01 blade can be angled and adjusted to suit the application and ensure comfortable cable jacket peeling without inflicting damage to cable.
