A manual wire-stripper has first and second wire clamping jaws, a pair of stripping jaws disposed between the clamping jaws and an operating mechanism including a lever pivoted to the stripper body to extend alongside a fixed lever. A slidably mounted draw-bar is connected to the stripping jaws and provides a first cam surface. An arm projecting from the second clamping jaw provides a second cam surface, a roller being located between the first and second cam surfaces and a rearwardly directed edge of the operating lever. During initial movement of the operating lever the roller is driven against the first and second cam surfaces to effect closing movement of the wire-clamping jaws. Continued movement of the operating lever moves the roller along the second cam surface to drive the draw-bar rearwardly, to act on the first cam surface and effect sliding stripping movement of the stripping jaws. |
