TAHAQuality HD Terminal Crimp Electrical Automatic Crimper Crimping Tool Wire Stripper Plier

Excellent product. What looks to be the exact same product is available from many different sellers under different branding at varying higher prices. The fine adjuster knob didn't seem to be that effective to help me grip smaller diameters but I am not bothered about that as I will continue to use end-on wire strippers to remove the insulation. I bought these specifically to remove the cable sheath and for this they are perfect. It does the job in a second which saves a great deal of time and it does it in a way that removes the risk of cutting through the sheath and into the insulation. The item I received did not have the rubberised grip insert on the plastic handle as per the photo, but I'm actually glad that it doesn't and prefer it without, though the photo should really be accurate. The item came very poorly packaged in just a plastic bag which gave it no protection. I heard a loud bang as it fell onto the hard floor when put through my waist height letterbox. Luckily only minor cosmetic damage and none of the plastic parts were cracked or snapped off.

As an electrician I bought these really on a whim as the price was cheap enough for a punt and the reviews were glowing. Unfortunately the tool glows too - mine were florescent yellow and look like a childs toy. I should have known better.The spring in the handle is really clunky, which you don't want when using as frequent as I planned. Not only that but the strippers do a poor job of stripping larger cable too.For the average person doing a bit of DIY they're probably fine as they won't knick the copper when stripping cable, but I'll be sticking to my cutters for now.

I wouldn't use this as a crimp tool, but as a cable stripper it works well. It feels quite solid. Sometimes a bit of insulation gets left behind in the cutter, but it's not hard to remove. There are plenty of variations of this device available on Amazon, but I am happy with the balance between price and quality. I much prefer it to the style like the Draper 55806. For stripping the outer sheath of e.g. mains cable, I'd use a rotary stripper.

This tool took a little while to 'break in' but now I've been using it for over an hour all the problems with it seem to have corrected themselves. Initially I fond myself having to apply pressure to the top of the cutting head in order to get the wire to strip correctly. If I didn't, the insulation would snag and stretch. However, after about an hour doing this I have found I no longer need to apply that pressure on top and get a good strip of the wire everytime.Additionally, the tool has a small section that can be used to cut the cable. I found this was too blunt in practice to be of any real use, but I didn't buy the tool to cut wires anyway, so I'm not too bothered about that.Really can't complain based on the price.

item arrived on time and was as described, when I used it, it worked perfectly and made the job so much easier, a pleasure to useand a great addition to my toolkit. Recommended.

Remember the old days of the pliers style strippers. You either chopped when you wanted to strip, or didn't remove the outer at all. Lots of manufacturers now make this design these were particularly good value.

Don't know whether these will stand the test of time, but to date with a lot or intense use over a brief period, they have been fantastic. Great for crimping, cutting and strips really well, whips outer insulation off 2.5 mm T&E with ease and then inner insulation with no adjustment. Whish I had bought these earlier (like 30 years earlier)

As other reviewers have previously stated these are not the best made cable strippers that you can purchase but for the average householder who may only want to use them a few times a year they are probably one of the best value buys you can get of this type of tool. In most respects they are almost identical to their more expensive counterparts but not quite as well made!
