Thin Gauge Precision Wire Strippers, Razor Sharp Carbon Steel Jaws, Pro Japanese Quality. Engineer Pa06

The precision and quality of Engineer tools is just impeccable and they often have small innovative/thoughtful features. I've seen a few of their pliers and nippers and all were top notch, comparable in every way to the most esteemed tools from USA, Germany, and Sweden. I've used a lot of different strippers and thought I had some of the best, but wow, these are just buttery goodness like I didn't know was possible. The gauge markings on this one are for stranded, so keep that in mind. It doesn't list solid conductors on the tool and the metric markings are the actual hole diameter (not wire diameter)...the back side is unmarked. Nice light spring action, which is so much better than stronger springs, and the hinge adjustment is excellent. Mine came perfect out of the box but if you need to adjust it for preference or precision down the road, be sure to do it properly (instructions available on their website). Grips are comfortable and soft with some tack/grip, little funky design. The locking tab has play in it but doesn't move unless you tell it to, works great. This is the first stripper I've owned that had absolutely no need for removal of micro burrs or touch-ups of the cutting surfaces, very well done. The tips do not have serrations and do not line up perfectly parallel/square, which is weird, but I don't know if there is some reason for that. One of the best things about this particular model is that it covers a great range that allows you do strip finer sizes but still goes down to some sizes that are more typical in larger circuits and power supplies, plus it's compact compared to some. This will be a do-all tool for me about 95% of the time and I won't miss needing two strippers within reach. I'm not sure why Engineer tools aren't more popular than they are because they are just fantastic quality. More known for their niche screw removal pliers, I guess, and those have shifted into the "Vam-plier" marketing name lately. I'd put these and the Engineer nippers on par with anything I've seen from Knipex, Wiha, Wera, Wiss/Cooper Group, etc. and they're absolutely a step or two above Xuron, GB, Klein, Greenlee, etc...way better than the normal CHP/Hakko stuff. Worth a slot on your bench or box.

Top Werkzeug. Schluss mit Feuerzeug, Messer und Kneifzange. Abisolieren wie ein Profi! Ich hatte einige 0,14 mm² (AWG 26) Leitungen die abisoliert werden mussten. Das Ergebnis habe ich mit einer kleinen Uhrmacherlupe überprüft und bin vom Ergebnis positiv überrascht worden. Wer Fragen zum Kabelquerschnitt hat, sollte auf der Herstellerseite von Engineer Japan nachschauen Es wird zwischen "stranded" und "solid" wires unterschieden. Die AWG Angaben die man auf der Zange vorfindet, sind für Leitungen mit Litzenaufbau bestimmt.

Acquistata nel novembre 2017 a €29.99 Non grande, molto maneggevole, precisa, perfettamente affilata. Per i fili sottili non ha rivali. Usarla è un piacere. Tra l'altro mi ricorda che oriente ed Asia non significano solo Cina, quando si cerca qualcosa su Amazon ...

I normally stick around the middle of this set at 26AWG and I couldn't be happier, super sharp, super easy to use. The other day I had a rare need to use the 30AWG smallest position, and that's where you can really see if a tool has precision. They stripped away the plastic perfectly and the single strand of paper thin copper was left without a nick. If I had to make a wish, it would be brighter (maybe fluoro green) handles. The dark green sometimes needs two glances to find. But they do their job very well.
