Ideal Industries 45-520 Adjustable 3 Blade Coaxial Cable Stripper for RG-58/59/6 with 1/4" Strip

One of our original styles of coaxial cable strippers for RG-58/59/6/6 Quad coax. What makes these products unique is that each blade is individually adjustable so if you are working with a non-standard type of coaxial cable (thicker jacket or thinner dielectric – 50Ω cables, for example) the blades can be positioned according to the cable dimensions for a precise cut. If the traditional industry standard 1/4” x 1/4” prep tools just won’t work for your application, these are the products to try.A 3 position top side slide bar adjusts the cable V-notch size for fast adjustments of different diameter cables.Each tool includes a hex wrench stored in the handle. It is used to adjust the hex set screws to change the depth of each blade. The 45-520 is a 3 blade model that is designed to offer a 1/4” shield exposure, 1/4” dielectric exposure, and 1/4” conductor exposure. Conductor exposure is variable, up to 1/2”. This is primarily used in legacy RF crimp connectors. It is not used with modern day compression connectors. The third blade can be recessed to a no-cut position to allow the 45-520 to operate as a standard 2-step stripper.
