Product Information

Full details

The Draper ErgoStrip PV Stripping Tool is designed for electricians and DIYers needing to quickly and accurately strip various common cables. Its primary benefit is the ergonomic pistol grip and slim tool ends, which enhance ease of use and access in tight spaces. A potential caveat is its specialization, meaning it may not be the most versatile tool for every single cable type outside its primary design parameters.

How does the ergonomic design help?

The pistol grip and multi-component design with a soft plastic zone provide a comfortable and secure grip, reducing user fatigue during prolonged use.

What are the dimensions of the tool?

Does it work well in tight spaces?

Troubleshooting

Tool is not stripping cable cleanly.

Ensure the correct cross-section is selected on the stripping device. Check that the cable is inserted straight and fully into the jaws. Clean the blades of any debris.

Difficulty inserting cable into the jaws.

Utilize the opening aid for coax and data cables. Ensure the opening spring is functioning correctly. For round cables, a slight twist may help insertion.

The locking device is stiff or won't engage.

Inspect the locking mechanism for any obstruction or debris. Gently clean the mechanism. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
