WEICONAutomatic Wire Stripper No. 5 | adjustable 24-10 AWG (0.2-6.0 mm²) | Multi-Tool | Integrated Side Cutter (max. 2.0 mm) | Ergonomic Shape | for Round Cables

The wire stripper must be durable, because it arrived in a non-padded plastic envelope, and the product box was smashed all to h*ll. My first thought was that the product was busted up and tiny pieces would just fall out of the package.Buy, was I wrong! I poured the wire stripper out of its smashed packaging, and it was in one piece. Not even the small wire depth adjuster was broken. Nothing was broken. This speaks to me of the quality and durability of a product that is not entirely made of metal. So, just because the outer cover is plastic (ok, it's nylon), that doesn't mean inferior.Using it was another story. At first, it just seemed awkward to hold and insert the wire into the front. After a few practice runs, however, I was pleased with the operation of the device. This precision instrument is lightweight, so it can be used for a long time without tiring from holding a heavier instrument. The handle fits the hand comfortably, and squeezes with ease. Stripping the wire is effortless.Additionally, the size is compact and can be made even more so with the handle lock: Just squeeze the handle as if stripping wire and active the lock. The instrument now becomes more compact. Nice!Although German engineered and manufactured, there are a few negatives (these do not detract from the overall operation):1) the built-in wire cutter is just awkward -- just use a regular wire cutter;2) the longest measured cut is only 12mm or 1/2-inch -- not a deal breaker. Just bypass the depth gauge by passing the wire around it.3) support? unknown.Would I buy Weicon again. Most likely, but I would also consider Klein Tools (different design).

The media could not be loaded. This thing works like a dream! It makes stripping wires very quickly and efficiently. I sat in my basement thoroughly testing this tool. For (35 mins) all sizes of wire strip perfect 99.8% of the time. Only once it didn't strip. If your on the fence about it, it's inexpensive and works extremely smooth. I like how the handle has a lock position so it stores in pouch or pocket nice and compact. The plastic is light and probably won't survive a huge fall. But all the main moving parts are made of metal so I can see it lasting a long time. It doesn't feel like dollar store cheap plastic. It's a good plastic frame. If you're a person that pulls the trigger on the drill every time you pick it up. You'll definitely be addicted to this tool...

After several months of hobby use, this tool is amazing. Was skeptical at first, seemed flimsy. It WORKS.! Exactly what i needed, a great purchase. My other (older) wire cutters/strippers are now only wire cutters.

Some insulation gets trapped and has to be picked out, think it's just the larger silicone insulation it just doesn't really want to let go of. Other than that, so far so good.

do enough of my own wiring that when I saw my brother using this, I needed one. NOW. One day delivery and was using it that afternoon. Really great when using connectors like lever nuts. Don't know how I made it this long without.

Well made ! Great product !! No idea how I ever lived without these. Very good quality and easy to use

This clamp is already broken after very little use, a small knife has detached and is lost. Very disappointed

I do a lot of small wire work, landing wires into terminal blocks. I've gotten to be pretty fast with classic wire strippers, but now I hardly use them. If you need several dozen wires stripped an exact amount, you can't do better than this. I've had no problems with any size wire, though I don't work with 22-24 AWG.I repaired a damaged 10-wire ribbon cable right after I received this Weicon. It cut the time it took to splice out the bad section in half, and it looked a whole lot nicer. It's kinda fun to strip the ends of twenty wires in less than a minute. Click-click-click-click-done!The wire does need to be mostly straight at the end, and there's definitely a little technique to using these quickly. It's less fussing than regular strippers, but not nothing.They weigh almost nothing. Some people complain that it feels cheap. To me, they feel surprisingly light, but the action is smooth and precise. They are always in my bag of essential tools.
