Cable Sheath Stripping Tool

Remove Outer Sheath & Jacket From High Voltage Cables

Alroc DMSR/80-160 cable jointing tools are used by jointers to remove the outer sheath and aluminium/lead shield from HV & EHV cables with outside diameters 80-160mm

Integral insulation screen detection is provided by successively performing a longitudinal and circular cut.

Alroc DMSR/80-160 cable jointing tool has an embedded mechanical dial gauge allowing the jointer to score the aluminium shield without cutting and causing cable damage.

The Alroc cable tool provides safe and precise cable cutting by the HV-EHV Jointer – a longitudinal cut ensures the cable screen is correctly scored without damaging the cable layer and setting up the thrust to prevent screen damage caused by the cable cutting blade.

The video demonstrates removing outer sheath from the EHV Extra High Voltage cable and the ability to switch from longitudinal cut to circular cut without removing the jointers tool from the cable.

A sound alerts when the tool blade is touching the aluminium/lead shield – the Alroc DMSR/80-160 cable jointers tool allows for very fine tuning and precision of the cutting depth, with a screen thickness capacity of 11mm / 0.433in and a diameter range of 80-160mm  / 3.150-6.299in.
