Greenlee 1903 Cable Stripper
The Greenlee 1903 is a 7-inch manual cable stripper designed for electrical professionals and maintenance technicians who need to prepare large conductors quickly. It handles a range from 8 AWG up to 1250 kcmil, making it suitable for heavy-gauge wire and cable found in industrial and commercial installations. The composite plastic grip reduces hand fatigue during repetitive stripping tasks.
Replaces fixed-blade knives and undersized strippers
When a job involves cable sizes that exceed the capacity of standard hand strippers, this tool eliminates the need to score insulation with a utility knife. The manual adjustment lets the user match the blade depth to each conductor size without changing tools. The jump is worth it whenever stripping 1250 kcmil cable is a regular requirement rather than an occasional exception.
Fits on a tool belt or in a gang box
The 7-inch length keeps the stripper compact enough for a technician’s pouch while still delivering the leverage needed for thick insulation. No power source, bench mounting, or accessory dies are required, so it deploys immediately at the point of use. It frees up time otherwise spent cleaning up nicked conductors or searching for a correctly sized alternative.

Questions about this item
What is the cable size range the Greenlee 1903 can strip?
The Greenlee 1903 strips cables from 8 AWG up to 1250 kcmil, covering a wide range of common wire gauges used in electrical work.
How do I adjust the stripper for different wire sizes?
Use the manual adjustment knob to set the blade depth for the specific wire gauge, then squeeze the handles to strip; the common error is not tightening the knob fully, causing the setting to slip during use.
When should I replace the blades on this cable stripper?
Replace the steel blades when they no longer cut cleanly through insulation or leave ragged edges on the conductor, which indicates the cutting edges have dulled from repeated use.
