Ideal 45-129 Swivel-blade Cable Stripper 1-1/2 in

Product Description

The IDEAL 45-129 is a swivel-blade cable stripper designed for stripping the outer jacket from single and multiple conductor cables with an outer diameter ranging from 0.5 inches to 0.75 inches. The tool accepts cable up to 1.5 inches in capacity and is built to mil-spec standards, making it suitable for demanding electrical work in commercial and industrial environments. A spare blade is stored in the handle base, keeping a replacement within reach on the job. Electricians and low-voltage installers reach for this stripper when working with larger-diameter wiring assemblies where a standard wire stripper is not practical.

The 45-129 is well-suited for use on single and multiple conductor cable installations common in commercial electrical, data, and control wiring applications. It is appropriate for use in both new construction and retrofit service work where cable jacket removal must be clean and controlled. The swivel-blade design allows the blade to rotate around the cable circumference, producing a consistent cut without nicking the conductors inside.

Key Features

• Swivel-blade design scores and removes cable jacket without nicking inner conductors
• Accepts single and multiple conductor cable from 0.5 inches to 0.75 inches O.D.
• Maximum capacity of 1.5 inches
• Spare blade stored in the handle base for on-the-spot blade changes
• Built to mil-spec standards for consistent performance in trade applications

Compatibility

Designed for use with single or multiple conductor cable measuring 0.5 inches to 0.75 inches outer diameter. Suitable as a cable jacket stripper in commercial and industrial electrical installations where larger-diameter cables are present.

Installation Notes

This tool is typically used by licensed electricians and low-voltage technicians. De-energize and lock out the circuit before stripping any cable in a live panel or enclosure. Keep the swivel blade perpendicular to the cable axis during scoring to avoid cutting into conductor insulation. Replace the blade when cuts become ragged; the spare blade in the handle base allows this to be done on site.
