A cable-stripping tool comprising two parts (1, 3; 7) which can rotate relative to one another about an axis and of which a first part (1, 3) carries a cutting blade (17) in the vicinity of said axis and a second part (7) of which carries a hook (22) which can move axially and which is biased towards an end position relative to the cutting blade by means of a first spring means (50), wherein the hook has a concave side which faces towards the cutting blade and which functions to receive the cable to be stripped, and wherein the hook also includes a generally axially orientated stem (20) with which the hook is connected to the tool The spring means act against a body (40) which can be moved axially towards and away from said end position by means of said second part; wherein the spring means (50) is adapted to bias the body (40) to its end position, wherein the body (40) carries a latching device (47, 48) which is able to latch with a co-acting formation (2a) on the stem (20), and wherein the latching device (47, 48) can be actuated from outside the tool without dismantling the tool. In addition to the first mentioned hook there is provided a further hook (22) which includes said formation (24) on its stem for co-action with the latching device (47, 48) and the effective length of which stem is different to the effective length of the stem of the first mentioned hook (22). <IMAGE> |
