The 45-404 Ringerâ„¢ is a shielded cable stripper designed for precise cable preparation. It features a spring-loaded cutting head that holds the cable with consistent tension, removing the need for adjustment. A V-notch jaw automatically positions the cable to increase cutting accuracy, while fixed blades are sized to the insulation thickness to prevent damage. A wire guide roller maintains head alignment to produce a square, clean cut, and its 17-4 stainless steel construction ensures long life.
