Klein Tools 11055 Wire Stripper Cutter 6-12 Awg

Product Description

The KLEIN TOOLS 11055 is a multi-function wire stripper and cutter built for electricians working with solid and stranded wire from 6 to 12 AWG. The tool features a serrated nose and curved, double-dipped comfort grip handles designed to reduce hand fatigue during extended use. At 7-1/8 inches in length and just 0.4 pounds, it is lightweight enough for all-day carry without sacrificing durability. The 11055 handles four core tasks in a single tool: cutting, stripping, looping, and gauging wire. Steel construction keeps the cutting edges sharp through repeated use on the job.

The KLEIN TOOLS 11055 is suited for residential and light commercial electrical work where solid and stranded wire terminations are common. Typical applications include panel work, outlet and switch rough-in, and fixture connections. The tool is sized for belt or pouch carry and handles the wire gauges most frequently encountered in NEC-governed branch circuit wiring. Licensed electricians and apprentices alike reach for this style of tool when working through boxes and tight conduit runs where a single multi-function tool is more efficient than carrying separate strip and cut instruments.

Installation Notes

Wire stripping and cutting work must be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and applicable local codes. Always de-energize and verify circuits are dead at the breaker before stripping or cutting conductors. Inspect the tool before each use for worn or damaged cutting edges and replace if performance is compromised. Do not use this tool on energized conductors.
