Question: How well do these strip 12 gauge romex (individual conductors, of course)?  That would be main use for these; already have simple strippers.
Document: Best $16 I've spent.Removes the outer sheath from Romex as well as from each individual wire. Works well with smaller gauge stranded automotive wire also.Well made tool other than the plastic stop which is unnecessary anyway.Irwin would do well including instructions as to how to adjust for wire gauge.>>>>The small brass knob must be loosened for 20+ gauge and tightened for use with larger wire.I've been so impressed that I have given three as Christmas gifts.
I've been doing a lot of small electrical projects around my house (1967 built), mostly stripping romex wire 12/2 and 14/2. I have a cheap $4 pair of strippers that I was using. Don't get me wrong, cheap strippers work... but this Self-Adjusting Wire Stripper is the best $16 investment I've made in awhile. What would take me 3-4 min to strip using el cheapo strippers now takes literally seconds with these. Works as advertised.
Tons of other reviews have covered the spectrum of what I can say, so I will be brief.I do IT work. I install networks, CCTV systems, alarm systems, P.A. systems, etc. I just got his tool but have already used it with various wire gauges, 14/2 12/2 Romex, standard IC speaker wire, 2 pair 4 pair alarm wire and so on.
This might be okay for occasional home use, but I got frustrated with it. It has a tendency to pull back the nylon instead of stripping off the thermoplastic, especially on 10 & 12 AWG conductors. I found it's faster to use regular strippers instead of messing with these.
This self adjusting wire stripper strips the outer sheath off romex and then each individual wire with ease. However, some detailed instructions would be helpful on setting it for finer wire
As with another reviewer I had bought a half dozen cheap strippers and with the same result...didn't work well or fell apart after a few jobs....or both. My last one broke while I was on a 12 foot ladder a half block from anything else to strip wire. I didn't realize Irwin meant Channel-Lock...or I would not have hesitated. I have a tool box filled with Channel_Lock tools and have never had to replace one in 40 years.
If I had to thread the needle to the right wire gauge as with other types of strippers it would be a lot harder than using this one. This tends to work best with gauges around 12 or smaller diameter. Good for household circuits and hobby electronics wiring.
You might have to pay a little more, but I think it would be worth it. I don't know how well it would handle large wire and some of the videos gave me doubts but if your stripping under 12/14 gauge, Id say buy it.
This is the first wire stripper of this type that has worked well, worked consistently, and which seems like it'll last.I used it on both solid and stranded, from thin gauge used in my electronics projects to the 10 gauge Romex I needed to wire a power tool outlet in my workshop. Just don't use on any wire with a more rubberized/stretchy insulation, as it won't snip quite as well.Recommended.
I tried this wire stripper on various wires and would highly recommend it to anyone, except someone working with Romex type house wiring. This type of conductor wire has a thin clear plastic outer skin that when using this tool to strip off the insulation, it just doesn't completely remove both insulation coatings at the same time. This tool works very well for all the automotive type wires I could find.
Answer: yes
