New Cable Stripper Offers Safer Efficient Alternative to Traditional Methods

The SACS Steel Wire Armored (SWA) Cable Stripping Tool represents a significant advancement in cable termination technology, offering professionals a safer and more efficient alternative to traditional methods involving hacksaws and utility knives.

Engineered to address the limitations of conventional cable stripping techniques, the SACS tool combines lightweight aluminum construction with precision-engineered steel components. This robust design ensures durability while maintaining compliance with workplace health and safety regulations.

1. Circular Cutting: Position tool at cable termination point, engage blade through outer insulation, rotate tool for complete cut, then repeat process 50mm from initial cut.
2. Longitudinal Cutting: Rotate tool 90 degrees, align with initial cut, engage blade and guide along cable length while maintaining consistent depth.
3. Outer Sheath Removal: Separate and remove outer insulation, carefully unwind and snap armored wires at cut points.
4. Inner Sheath Cutting: Position tool at desired inner sheath removal point, perform circular cut without damaging conductors.
5. Final Removal: Complete longitudinal cut on inner sheath, remove to expose conductors.

Beyond its primary use with steel wire armored cables, the SACS tool demonstrates versatility across multiple applications including non-armored cables and various conduit materials. This adaptability makes it valuable across electrical, telecommunications, and construction sectors.

The tool's design prioritizes operator safety by removing exposure to sharp cutting implements while meeting relevant industry safety standards. Its integrated safety features significantly reduce common cable termination hazards.

Regular cleaning and blade inspection ensure optimal performance. Proper storage in dry environments and immediate replacement of worn components maintain tool integrity. Users should always follow manufacturer guidelines and wear appropriate personal protective equipment.
