Device for stripping sheathing on unbonded post-tensioning tendons

摘要

A device for helically cutting and automatically removing waste sheathing from the stressing tails of unbonded tendons. The device comprises an elongated body and an attached cutting head. Both the body and the cutting head have a through bore for accepting a post-tensioned tendon. The cutting head comprises an integral blade having a cutting face orthogonal to the cutting head's longitudinal axis and angled between 45 and 85 degrees from the longitudinal axis. The blade cuts the sheathing while also ejecting the waste sheathing.
