WRAPPING OF ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE WIRES

摘要

IMPROVEMENTS IN OR RELATING TO THE WRAPPING OF ELFCTRICALLY CONDUCTIVE WIRES A wire wrapping tool comprises a head which is formed integrally with a shaft. The head includes a frusto-conical portion which has a chordally extending portion cut away to define a cutting edge. A blade portion is formed on the head, the blade having a slot through which a wire can pass. The head also has an axially extending bore into which a wire wrapping post can be inserted. In use the shaft is attached to a pistol gun to rotate the head. Wire from which the insulation is to be stripped is passed over the edge, through the slot and around a wrapping post. As the wire passes over the edge a longitudinal slit is formed in the insulation which is then stripped away from the conductive core as the wire passes through the slot.
