C.K Jokari T20050 Single Core Stripper (Jokari Super 4), Black

The best wire cutters/stripper i have ever used. Lightweight and extremely easy to use. Worth every penny.

Very effective. Way better than the standard automatic wire strippers.

Works well on internal sheathing and good for situations where you don’t have room for the normal side oriented strippers. No good for external sheathing on twin and earth though. Quite lightweight and ‘plasticy’ so light use / diy suitable. Still, for the price, they’re pretty good.

Does what it is supposed to do, strips single wires well. It feels light but is well engineered and is quite strong with a nice smooth action. It cuts and strips 1mm and 2.5mm sq wires with ease. The spec is for up to 4mm sq. wires and will strip these, however it is seems to work better if you give the cutting edges a second or two to sink into the plastic before applying the force (maybe take a few bites for the newer harder (smoke-free) plactic coating required in modern regulations). Cuts are clean/neat. The wire 'snipper' is also a nice feature. Like anything, it could be broken with mis-use, but with proper use, I expect this to last a long time.

Many years ago I was doing an electrical course for senior marine engineers. On the course someone had a set of automatic wire strippers and frankly at the time it was a tool that inspired awe and wonder among us. It was also about 50 quid from RS Components at the time and thus almost worth it's weight in gold... Fast forward and today there are various types of auto-strippers that cost not much at all and I have a few. Then my son put me onto this pair of wire strippers and I have to say, these are the best I've used for domestic type wiring. My son has his own electrical installation business so speed and value count. To be honest at 17 quid there isn't much to hold or look at. Just a small plastic wire stripper with vee steel jaws. But, in use these are the easiest, fastest and most accurate wire strippers yet. Most of all that vee shaped jaw stops the chance of cutting the actual wire off itself. The flat jawed type now and again do this and it can be frustrating to say the least. These are German designed and whilst they may seem simple they really do work well.

I've tried a number of cheaper wire strippers for smaller wires around 24/22AWG (0.2/0.35mm2 ish). Normally they either damage/cut the wire or refuse to strip at all even when there is a manual tension adjustment. Not these. They strip cleanly and easily every time and no annoying adjuster. Solid core is unmarked, so no nick to break at later. Strands are not cut, it even will strip the outer off a thin coax (RG-174) with out damaging the braid. Only complaint is they are a bit too light which doesn't inspire confidence of a durable product. They are very well made though so for smaller wiring I am sure they will last a long time. Not used on thicker mains cords so can't comment on those.

An excellent tool that actually works as it should, well worth the money

I use wire strippers regularly and most of them leave a ‘shark gill’ on the wire end. (Like small rib strips on the outer sheath). But not these wire strippers! They have a soft grip to the wire so no marks left on the end. I use them on trirated wires and not tested on the PVC. They would not strip the outer sheath of twin and earth, only single cables. Overall they are great.

Bardzo dobry

Quality product. Does what it’s supposed to

Secondo il produttore, la pinza spelafili Super 4 plus è destinata ad un uso professionale e permette di spellare fili da 0.2 mmq fino a 6mmq. La pinza ha una regolazione di profondità da 6 a 15mm, non richiede alcuna regolazione per lo spessore del filo e posside una taglierina per fili fino a 2.5 mmq. La lama può essere sostituita con un ricambio quando si usura, seguendo le istruzioni del sito della Jokari; probabilmente la lama può anche essere limata per affilarla, perdendo forse un poco di presa sui fili più sottili ma risparmiando il costo del ricambio. A un primo esame, la pinza appare molto leggera e fa venire qualche pensiero sulla sua robustezza. In realtà, provando a storcere il manico con le mani, questo non sembra aver molta voglia di farsi deformare. La leggerezza sarà certamente apprezzata da chi si deve portare dietro una valigia piena di attrezzi. Ho provato a spellare fili da 2.5mmq e 4mmq, lavoro che la pinza svolge senza problemi e senza fatica per chi la usa. La foto mostra il risultato della spellatura con la pinza Jokari (a destra) e con la mia vecchia pinza (a sinistra), comprata in un brico. Non sono sicuro che nella voto si veda bene, ma il taglio della Jokari è più netto, anche se lievemente diagonale; quello della pinza economica più irregolare e "smozzicato". La taglierina funziona bene con i fili da 2.5mmq. Forzando le specifiche del produttore, sono anche riuscito a tagliare un filo da 4mmq con una certa difficoltà, perché il filo non entrava nel vano della taglierina. Suggerimento: non lo fate. :) Successivamente ho provato a tagliare un filo da circa 0.2mmq estratto da un cavo di rete CAT5, che la pinza ha spellato al secondo tentativo con qualche difficoltà ad "agganciare" la guaina. L'impressione complessiva è di aver comprato un utensile di qualità che, a dispetto della leggerezza, sembra destinato a durare nel tempo. 5 stelle, malgrado qualche difficoltà nello spellare fili (veramente) molto piccoli.

Was initially weary with the fact it was made from resin instead of metal. Those concerns were wiped out after the first use. Blades are super sharp and it strips the wire with one shot every single time. Better than any wire stripper I have ever bought at any hardware store. It’s not a professional tool obviously but for the di-yourselfer, it’s a solid tool.

I bought this mainly to strip electrical wire, connecting the wires to wall socket. As the wires are fixed and short, the end wire stripper works a lot better than conventional stripper. Unfortunately, the plastic construction is weak, the hinge twist and rock when I stripping the 2.5mm² wire and barely able to strip the outer jacket. Everytime I use it, I feel like its going to break apart. For a stripper claiming to strip up to 6mm² wire, this is disappointing. Would have return it but it over the return window.
