Cut it out with either scissors or an X-acto knife.

A method and optical fiber stripper for removing one or more coatings from an optical fiber is disclosed.

A manual wire-stripper has a body (10) defining a first wire clamping jaw (11) and a fixed lever (25).

The optical fiber stripper includes a pair of grip members, a cutting mechanism, and a pair of fiber stress distributing elements.

For stripping the sheathing the JOKARI AS Interface Stripping Plier 20070 is recommended.

Wire pliers, branch cutters and pruning tools are just among a few of the tools you will need.

Once you feel the curvy grips of the Rack-A-Tiers Croc's, you may never want to give them up.

Using a wire stripping tool, remove about 10 cm (4 inches) of the outside plastic sheath (usually beige or grey) that bundles the wires together.

Take a solder, grab a tool and come help us at LabFab Rennes and at Maker Faire Paris the 21 and 22nd of June!

A wire stripper (10) has a pair of elongated frames (12, 14) pivotably joined together by a pivot pin (16, 18) and defining handles (40) and jaws (42).

The low priced, but high quality, Capri Tools Automatic uses a pistol grip handle that provides control and comfort, even if you have a lot of work to do.

The plastic outer layer can be withdrawn without any problems from the insulation during the mounting of the cable, particularly by means of a wire stripper, together with the separating layer or by destroying the latter.

However, these cables are much more fragile than their metallic counterparts, reducing the flexibility to splice one and connect it to another using a regular wire stripper.

If you have the time, talent, and desire, you can create something more complicated (note: these projects will take quite a bit more than just copper wire strippers and a multimeter).

Using a wire stripping tool, remove about 3 cm (1 inch) of the plastic insulation from each of the coloured wires to expose the copper as shown in the diagram (see Figure 4).
