An improved thermal wire stripper of the type having a slotted metal thermal strip tensioned between the ends of a pair of upstanding, parallel electrodes, provides a gauge selection rotatable member mounted on one of the electrodes and having successive steps for coacting with successively smaller parallel-jaw portions of the slot to prevent nicking wire in stripping it of insulation. A forked support braces the metal thermal strip against excessive deflection that wire stripping might otherwise cause, a plunger actuated slug-flicker flicks away dangling insulation bits left by stripping operations, and a strip-length gauge and finger shield are also provided.
