Multi-Purpose Electrician's Tool 1001

The Klein Tools 1001 combines wire cutting, stripping and crimping in a single 8.5 inch hand tool. It handles 8-22 AWG solid and 10-26 AWG stranded wire and crimps 7-8 mm terminals. Cushioned handles and an adjustable pivot nut reduce fatigue during repetitive electrical work.

Upgrade From Basic Strippers

This tool replaces separate cutters, strippers and crimpers when you need all three functions on a job site. The jump is worth it if you regularly switch between cutting bolts, looping wire and crimping insulated or non-insulated splices. It is not for buyers who only need occasional wire stripping or who require a dedicated ratcheting crimper for high-volume production.

Check Your Requirements

Verify that 7-8 mm terminals match the connectors you use most often. Confirm the 8.5 inch overall length fits your tool pouch or belt. Ensure the red plastic cushioned grip meets any site-specific handle-colour or insulation rules before ordering.

Questions about this item

What wire gauges can the 1001 model cut and strip?

The tool cuts and strips 8-22 AWG solid wire and 10-26 AWG stranded wire using the integrated cutters.

How do I adjust the pivot tension on the 1001 tool?

Turn the pivot nut to increase or decrease tension; the common mistake is over-tightening, which makes the handles bind during repetitive cuts.

When should I replace the cushioned grips on the 1001 model?

Replace the plastic-covered handles when the cushion material tears, compresses permanently, or becomes slippery, typically after heavy daily use.
