10-18 AWG stripping and cutting

Electricians working with solid wire
This tool suits professionals stripping and cutting 10 to 18 AWG solid conductors in tight spaces. The narrow nose reaches confined areas easily. Color-coded yellow handles identify the solid-wire function. It is not for cutting steel wire, bolts or stranded wire tasks.
10 to 18 AWG solid wire range
The single specification that decides fit is the 10 to 18 AWG solid stripping range (4.0 to 0.75 mm). If the job requires larger or smaller gauges, or stranded wire stripping, a different tool is needed. Overall length is 159 mm and weight is 0.27 lb.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the Klein Tools 11045 is stripping correctly after first use?
Check that 10 to 18 AWG solid wire strips cleanly without nicking the conductor and that the spring-loaded jaws reopen smoothly after each squeeze.
What comes with the 11045 and what must I supply separately?
The carded package includes the single yellow-handled stripper cutter; no additional accessories are bundled, so have your 10 to 18 AWG solid wire ready.
Which handle colour version of the 11045 should I choose for solid wire work?
Select the yellow-handled model because the colour code identifies it for 10 to 18 AWG solid wire stripping.
