ABSTRACT:
A wire stripper (10) for stripping an outer insulative jacket from a cable (12) includes a frame (14) which carries a cable clamp (16) for releasably clamping the cable. The frame also carries a slitting mechanism (43) which includes a rotatable blade carrier (46) and a central passage (48) through which the cable passes. The blade carrier includes a pair of blades (60--60) each radially movable within a separate one of a pair of diametrically opposed slots (56--56) so as to circumferentially slit the insulative jacket when the blade carrier is rotated in a first direction. A gripping mechanism (94) is slidably mounted to a pair of rails (100--100) carried by the frame for gripping a portion of the cable downstream of the blade carrier so as to pull the severed portion of the outer insulative jacket from the cable when the gripping mechanism is displaced by a lever (108).
