Detailed information

The Adjustable Blade Coax Stripper is unique in that each blade has an individually adjustable depth, so if you are working with a non-standard type of coaxial cable (thicker jacket or thinner dielectric – 50Ω cables, for example) the blades can be positioned according to the cable dimensions for a precise cut. If industry standard ¼” x ¼” prep tools just won’t work for your application, this is the tool to try. One blade can also be lowered to a no-cut position to use this stripper as a 2 blade tool. A 3 position top side slide bar adjusts the cable V-notch size for fast adjustments of different diameter cables. Includes a hex wrench stored in the handle.

  • Three individually adjustable blades for non-standard and standard cables
  • Approximately 1/4″ (.240″) strip between blades; open end for variable conductor lengths
  • Designed for use on RG58/RG59/RG6/RG6 Quad coax cables
  • Can also be used in most RG11 standard and plenum 1/4″ x 1/4″ cable strips with adjusted blades
  • Spring loaded handles secure the conductor during prep
  • Spin the tool for 5-7 rotations for most cables
  • Hex wrench included in handle for blade depth adjustments
  • Top slider and V-notch groove offer quick blade depth changes without use of the hex wrench
  • For most standard RG59 or RG6 compression connectors that use a 1/4″ x 1/4″ strip, we recommend the IDEAL® PrepPRO (45-605) as an alternate

I would absolutely recommend these lever connectors and will surely be using them in the future! Those connectors were super easy to work with, didn’t seem flimsy like other brands, and were super easy to install as well as remove
