Tools and Hardware Reviews of Irwin Industrial Tools 2078317 7-Inch Multi Tool Stripper, Cutter and Crimper with ProTouch Grips

Customer Review: Should have bought this years ago
Summary: 5 Stars

There's an old saying about having 'the right tools for the job.' The statement could not be any more correct. After years of trying to strip wires using: tools with a built in wire stripper as a second thought, scissors, razor blades and knives, this tool was like the holy grail. (I remember burning my fingers in college using a lighter, to melt the insulation off.) The stripping blades are super sharp, angle cut. With a little practice, you'll look like a pro in no time. I flew through the project of connecting my new car stereo. The strippers also have a very sharp cutter, crimping mechanism and small pliers on the tip. I combined this tool with some crimp caps (available very cheap) to make splicing wires, a snap. My car stereo install was not only quick and easy, but looks 100% professional. I was so pleased that I went back and redid several wiring jobs I had done years ago on other areas of my car. It took me no time to fix several of these projects. No more nasty, sticky electrical tape wrapped around wires with questionable connectivity. No more cutting my fingers or ruining wire, trying to strip it incorrectly. No more ugly heat shrink tubing.

These strippers are very solidly built. The metal is durable and will last many, many years. I highly recommend getting the more compact 7" tool, as most projects will require you to work in smaller, cramped spaces. It has a great locking mechanism, so you can even put them in a pocket, without risking injury or damaging your clothing. The tool also comes nicely oiled. The handles are rubberized and easy and comfortable to grip. I cannot wait to use these on more projects at home and at work. This is an invaluable tool for anyone doing any capacity of wiring.

Highly recommended to buy with this tool: crimp caps and zip ties. Using the zip ties to bundle your wiring jobs will give it a much more professional look. Also, I had some trouble with stripping larger gauge wires when I clamped down at an exact 90 degree angle to the wire and pulled straight out. I found that after I clamped down, if I twisted/wiggled/turned the stripper left to right a couple times (before pulling the insulation off) it helped to cut better, without damaging the wire or failing to cut on one side. (Pretend you are rattling a doorknob to imitate this action.)

I'm already scouring my home for more projects to use these on.
