Wire Stripping Pliers with Hex Wrench | Coaxial Cable Decrustation Tool
These wire stripping pliers are built for clean, precise cuts on coaxial cables. The adjustable V-block and dual-blade system let you strip the outer jacket and dielectric layer in one smooth motion. A built-in mini hex wrench makes blade depth adjustments quick and tool-free.
This tool handles multiple cable types including RG58, RG59, RG62, RG6, 3C2V, 4V, and 5C. The V-shaped cable guide helps you control the stripped length, while the rotary strip action requires only 3 to 5 turns to remove the outer layers. The straight handle design gives you a firm grip and better control during repetitive work.
The carbon steel blades stay sharp through many cuts, and the adjustable knob lets you set the depth for each blade individually. Whether you are installing TV cables, network lines, or security system wiring, this tool delivers consistent results without damaging the inner conductor.
This is a practical choice for electricians, installers, and DIY enthusiasts who need a reliable coaxial cable stripper. The integrated hex wrench means you never have to search for a separate tool when adjusting the blade depth.

Usage Scenario
Mark was running new coaxial cable for his home theater setup. He had struggled with a basic utility knife that often nicked the inner wire. With these stripping pliers, he set the blade depth using the built-in hex wrench, placed the cable in the V-block, and rotated the tool three times. The outer jacket and dielectric came off cleanly, leaving the conductor untouched. He finished all six cable ends in under five minutes.
Micro Comparison
Standard wire strippers often lack the adjustable depth control needed for coaxial cables, leading to damaged conductors or incomplete strips. This tool combines a coaxial-specific V-block with individual blade adjustments, giving you more precision than general-purpose pliers. The integrated hex wrench also eliminates the need for a separate tool, saving time on the job.
