Hi Guys, Starting to look seriously at wiring looms for KiwiSAT and need a reasonably priced, reliable, wire stripper capable of stripping PTFE hook-up wire - in short lengths! The Xcelite Auto stripper SAS3210T looks as though it would do the job and the price seems right/good. Anyone with experience of this stripper - or could recommend another that would be suitable? "Short lengths" are the key words. Current occasional use of PTFE wire is very tough on the fingers and finger nails! There must be a better way Thanks Fred ZL1BYP
Hi Fred, ZL1BYP
A PTFE Wire Stripper from 0.5 to 4.5 mm diameter made by ABECO TOOLS and sold by the RS with catalog numbar 608-301 costs 39.90 Euro and should work
Since I use very often PTFE wire with a minimum outside diameter of 0.5 mm I plan to buy one.
In a separate mail I have sent to you a pdf file with the instruction manual
