Ethernet Cable Wire Stripper & Cutter Tool for CAT5E CAT6 CAT7 Round Cable, DIY

This Ethernet cable wire stripper and cutter is a compact hand tool built for anyone who runs network cable around the house, garage or workshop. It strips the outer jacket from round LAN cable cleanly and also cuts it to length, so one tool covers the two jobs you do most on every cable run.

It works with round CAT5, CAT5E, CAT6 and CAT7 cable. The notched jaws grip the jacket and let you pull it off without nicking the twisted pairs inside, which is what keeps a crimped plug reliable and your connection fast.

The grip is comfortable, and the lightweight body slips into a tool bag, drawer or glove box. It suits DIY home networking, wall-plate installs, router and camera setups, and general electrician or hobby wiring jobs. The tool comes in black or grey.

Pair it with a crimper and a cable tester and you have a simple kit for making your own patch cables. For best results, squeeze lightly, rotate the cable once, and pull the jacket free before you trim the wire ends.
