The KNIPEX Automatic Wire Stripper (12 12 02) is built for pros who handle wiring all day and need a tool that keeps up. Designed for metric wire sizes, it automatically adjusts to different insulation thicknesses and wire gauges without nicking the conductor—making it a go-to for electricians, HVAC techs, and panel builders.
This tool is perfect for fast-paced, repetitive jobs where precision matters. Whether you’re stripping stranded or solid wire, it grips firmly and strips clean in one smooth motion. The adjustable length stop lets you dial in the strip length for consistency, and there’s even a built-in cutter near the handle for quick trims on the fly.
What really stands out is how comfortable it is to use. The slim, ergonomic shape fits well in the hand, and the lightweight design helps cut down on fatigue during long workdays. Plus, the high-quality construction you’d expect from KNIPEX means this tool will last through thousands of strips without losing performance.
