<p>Tool which will simultaneously cut an electrical wire and strip the predetermined length of insulation from the conductor. It comprises a pair of pivotally connected planar arm members (4, 6) in which the portion of the arms on one side of the pivot serve as operating handles. That part of the arms (4, 6) on the other side of the pivot has a pair of upturned, transversely operating wire-severing jaws (18, 20) which are oriented substantially normal to the longitudinal axis of the tool and normal to the plane of the arm (4, 6). Anterior to these jaws is a pair of upturned insulation stripping members (22, 24) which are oriented parallel to the cutting portions of the severing jaws (18, 20). These have cooperating opposed notches (25, 27) for cutting through the wire insulation. An adjustable stop (34) mounted on the handle portion controls the depth of cut. In use, it is only necessary to place the end of a wire in the tool, squeeze the handles, and give a slight twist and axial pull to remove the insulation. A consistent length of insulation is removed from the end of the wire at each use of the tool.</p> |
