CX207 - Corex Coax Cable Stripping Kit w/ 2-Step Blue Cassette - 0.27" Strip - APEX Part# 2CSKB

Pressmaster Strip Tools

The process of wire stripping involves the insulation casing on a wire or cable being cut and removed to expose the conductive wires underneath. While there are many options for stripping available, the Pressmaster family of strip tools provides a precise and quick strip that allows cables and wires to be readied for crimping or other applications. In addition, they require much less time, manual strength, and expertise than other competing strip tools in order to operate. The precision cassettes and strip cuts allow you to consistently obtain the same strips repetitively, without a loss in quality or risk of damage to cables.

Coax Connectors

Coax cables and connectors are among some of the most widely used cable connection systems, transferring various types of data among professional and residential cable lines. They are most commonly connected to TVs and cable modems in homes, offices, and industrial locations. Coax cables are available in several different constructions, with the same use but of different materials and quality. Coax connectors are also found with many different configurations, to fit your specific requirements, budget, and needs.

Corex Strip Tool Design

The Corex is the fastest, most accurate coaxial cable stripping system in the world. A wide range of color coded interchangeable blade cassettes provide exact stripping dimensions for many coaxial connectors. Cables can be stripped quickly and accurately by rotating the Corex around the cable. A friction adjustment on the top and depth adjustments on the bottom of the tool help create the perfect strip every time.

How To Strip Wire

To strip with the Embla tool, first adjust the tab on the blade cassette to match the length of the strip desired. Next slide the wire or cable into the tool from the front of the jaw. Next, completely close the handles of the strip tool and release. If the tool has made a wire strip that seems to be too thick or too thin, not removing all of the insulation or also removing some of the wire, then follow the instructions for adjusting the strip below. If the wire needs to be cut for any reason, you may simply place it into the blade notch below the strip jaw and pull the handle, as if stripping, and the blade will cut the desired wire.

How To Select the Correct Corex

Before purchasing the Corex, make sure your cables that need to be stripped fall within the range of 0.10" and 0.30" in diamater, the range at which all Corex strippers operate in. Next, choose the Corex kit that includes a blade cassette with the strip dimensions you need based off the thickness of the wire's insulation. Also, make sure that if you intend on stripping 2 or 3 step cable that you purchase the correct blade cassette as well. Once you are sure that you have selected a Corex that will work with the desired wires.
