Cable Jacket Stripper & Slitter For Sheath Cutting – Ripley AJS
Cable Stripping Tools
Ripley AJS
Ripley AJS is a cable stripping tool used when mid-span stripping, jointing and terminating overhead lines and primary distribution cables.
Ripley AJS is designed for longitudinal, circumferential (ringing), and mid-span splitting of corrugated aluminium or copper shield cables, medium-density polyethylene (MDPE), and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) conduits.
The adjustable jacket slitter has a very precise steel adjustable blade allowing slitting of covering of up to 6.3mm thick.
The AJS has a lever that is also adjustable allowing the blade to dig-in in a mid-span application and the lever teeth are designed for soft and hard jacket/covering applications.
