The Klein-kurve wire stripper/Cutter strips, cuts and loops 8-16 AWG solid and 10-18 AWG stranded wire. Its precision, shear-type blades provide clean cuts on both solid and stranded copper wire. With the strong-gripping serrated nose you can easily bend, shape and pull wire. For convenience there are easy-to-read markings on both sides as well as grips that have been doubled-dipped for comfort.
