Ideal Cable Stripper for RG-59 and RG-6

This hand tool strips UTP and STP round cables with outer diameters between 3/16 and 5/16 inch. It is built for installers and technicians preparing RG-59 or RG-6 coaxial cables for termination. The fixed blade spacing of 240 thousandths of an inch or 6.1 mm produces a two-step or window strip in one motion. The black cushion grip provides standard comfort during repetitive use.

Fixed blade spacing requires matching cable size

No adjustment mechanism is present, so the tool only works when the jacket diameter falls within the stated 3/16 to 5/16 inch range. Forcing larger or smaller cables will damage the rounded-edge slitting blade or leave an incomplete strip. The handles are not insulated, so the tool must not be used on live circuits. Blade replacement is not described in the supplied data.

Stripping capacity 3/16 to 5/16 inch decides fit

This single dimension determines whether the stripper matches the cable being installed. If the jacket falls outside this window, the tool cannot produce a clean two-step strip and a different stripper must be selected. The product carries California Proposition 65 warnings for chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the stripper is set correctly for RG-6 cable after setup?

Perform a test strip on a scrap piece of RG-6; the tool should cleanly score the jacket at the 3/16 to 5/16 in range without nicking the inner conductor.

What comes in the box with the Ideal UTP/STP Cable Stripper and what must I buy separately?

The package includes the stripper body and a rounded-edge slitting blade; replacement blades and any specific coaxial connectors are sold separately.

Which version should I choose for stripping both RG-59 and RG-6 cables?

This single model covers both RG-59 and RG-6 designations with its 3/16 to 5/16 in stripping capacity and 6.1 mm blade spacing for two-step or window strips.
