        What this product is for

        The IDEAL Industries 45-915 is a manual T-Stripper wire stripper for stripping 10-18 AWG solid and 12-20 AWG stranded copper conductors. It combines shear-type stripping holes with a plier nose for gripping, bending, and twisting conductors during rough-in, trim-out, and service work.

        Use for

        • Stripping common branch-circuit and control wire sizes
        • Holding and twisting conductors with the plier nose
        • Repeated hand stripping where spring return helps speed up work
        • Tool pouches and service kits where a compact dedicated stripper is preferred

        Avoid for

        • Live electrical work
        • Wire sizes outside the marked stripping range
        • Heavy cable cutting or large-gauge conductor work better suited to cable cutters or larger strippers
        • Precision data or specialty cable where jacket and conductor geometry require a dedicated tool

        Best for

        Electricians, maintenance teams, and contractors who want a dedicated hand stripper for common solid and stranded building wire sizes. This style is typically chosen when clean, repeatable stripping matters more than having a multi-tool crimper/stripper combination.

        Installed in

        Used on the job rather than installed in place. Commonly carried for residential, commercial, and light industrial electrical work across panels, boxes, luminaires, controls, and device terminations.

        Why this product exists

        This tool is designed to speed up repetitive wire preparation while giving better control than a knife. The spring-loaded action, thumb rest, and textured grips help reduce hand fatigue during repeated stripping, while the slide lock keeps the tool closed in storage.

        Compared with similar products

        Compared with basic stamped strippers, this model adds a plier nose, spring return, and ergonomic grip shape for faster repeated use. Compared with automatic self-adjusting strippers, it is simpler and better suited to electricians who prefer fixed stripping holes for known AWG sizes.

        Typical trade guidance: 15A circuits commonly use #14 AWG and 20A circuits commonly use #12 AWG, both within this tool's stripping range. Actual conductor type, insulation thickness, and local electrical code requirements should always be confirmed before use.
