Re: stripping 1/2" cable with tube cutters


That takes a little more talent.....using the inside of your nines...where the handle comes together crush the dalectric down to the sheath .......carefully so you don't crush or distort the center conductor.....and twist it off. Then clean your center conductor using a plastic surface or an approved conductor cleaner. Core with a coring tool
