Ecm Industries Llc GS-40 Wire Stripper Looper 10-24 Awg

Product Description

The ECM INDUSTRIES LLC GS-40 is a 5-inch wire stripper and looper designed for stripping and forming wire loops on conductors ranging from 10 to 24 American Wire Gauge (AWG). The tool features an adjusting stripping jaw that allows the technician to dial in the correct setting for different wire gauges without swapping tools. At 1 pound, it is a lightweight hand tool suited for daily use in electrical rough-in, panel work, device installation, and low-voltage wiring tasks. Electricians, HVAC technicians wiring controls, and other tradespeople who work with conductors in the 10 to 24 AWG range will find this tool appropriate for their workflow.

The GS-40 is used in residential and light commercial electrical work where stripping and loop-forming operations are routine. Typical applications include installing receptacles, switches, thermostats, control boards, and other devices that require stripped or looped wire ends for terminal connections. The adjusting jaw makes it practical across a broad gauge range without the need for a fixed-notch multi-gauge stripper.

Key Features

• Handles 10 to 24 AWG conductors with a single adjustable stripping jaw
• Built-in looper function for forming wire loops at terminal connections
• Compact 5-inch overall length for use in tight spaces
• Adjusting jaw eliminates the need to swap tools between wire gauges
• Lightweight at 1 pound for extended use without fatigue

Compatibility

Designed for use with insulated conductors in the 10 to 24 AWG range, consistent with typical residential and light commercial electrical wiring applications.

Installation Notes

This tool is used by licensed electricians and other tradespeople performing wiring tasks under applicable electrical codes such as the NEC. Always de-energize circuits and verify with a meter before stripping or handling conductors. Keep the adjusting jaw clean and free of insulation debris to maintain accurate stripping depth. Inspect the jaw and cutting edges periodically for wear that could nick conductors.
