The high-quality tools are TÜV-tested, carry the GS quality seal and were developed considering aspects of occupational safety and user-friendliness.

The WEICON Wire Stripper No. 5 can be used for stripping all common stranded and solid conductors between 0.2 and 6.0 mm². The stripping tool has an automatic scanning system, which determines the cable diameter. This prevents damaging the inner conductor. In addition, the No. 5 offers an adjustable length stop of 5-12 mm. A well-accessible side cutter up to 2 mm Ø is also integrated in the tool. automatic wire stripper working range 0.2 - 6.0 mm² integrated side cutter up to 2.0 mm Ø carries the TÜV Nord quality seal - safety-tested (registration no. 44 329 1311370113) Knife steel made in Solingen: high-quality blades, electrogalvanized Precise working due to adjustable length stop (5-12 mm) Integrated, easily accessible built-in side cutter up to 2 mm Ø Space-saving storage thanks t o locking mechanism WEICON Tools Wire Strippers The WEICON Wire Strippers are produced entirely in Germany.

Review: Good quality, worth having - This stripper is of excellent quality, it makes wiring control cabinets so much quicker. The finished wire end seems clean and the built in depth guage makes setting the length of exposed copper simnple and ready to ferrule absolutely simple and fool proof. For storage in your tool bag the handles can be held closed with a simple click, useful to keep the profile low. Review: Very nice to use - First impressions, this arrived with the box already open and the tool loose inside with no wrapping or other info, so did wonder if this was a returned item. Couldn't find an unboxing video to compare with, but it showed no wear on the blades or marks anywhere, so proceeded to try it rather than return, and it's very nice indeed. The finish could be better and smoother in a few places, however overall In the hand it feels very comfortable and well designed, and also very light being essentially all plastic. Operation is smooth and quiet. Stripping wires such as stranded mains T&E, bread board solid core jumper wires and very thin 4 core 0.14mm stranded signal wire was effortless with no loss of strands from cutting too deep. The stripping is 2mm longer than that indicated on the adjustable slider, but hardly an issue. The lock is probably a handy feature if needing to stow in a small space. So overall very nice, and substantially better than the ubiquitous sub-£10 strippers with flat cut and rip blades. ## Features - APPLICATION AREA - Automatic stripping pliers for all common flexible and solid conductors from 0.2 - 6.0 mm² (24 - 10 AWG). - PRECISION - Precise working thanks to the adjustable and removable length stop (5.0 - 12.0 mm) and scanning system, which automatically adjusts to the respective conductor cross section. - ADDITIONAL FUNCTION - Integrated, easily accessible side cutter up to 2.0 mm Ø and exchangeable blade. - QUALITY - 100% Made in Germany - Made of robust and ergonomically shaped glass-fibre reinforced polyamide | The durable blades are made of high-quality knife steel from Solingen. - SAFETY - The stripping tool is TÜV|GS tested in terms of occupational safety. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001NUMVHQ | | Best Sellers Rank | 21,078 in DIY & Tools ( See Top 100 in DIY & Tools ) 27 in Wire Strippers | | Brand | WEICON | | Colour | Blue/Red | | Country of Origin | Germany | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 4,310 Reviews | | Cutting Width | 2 Millimeters | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04024596000226 | | Grip Type | Ergonomic | | Handle Material | Glass fiber reinforced polyamide | | Handle material | Glass fiber reinforced polyamide | | Included Components | Blisterpackage | | Item Dimensions L x W | 16.2L x 12W centimetres | | Item Type Name | Wire Stripper No. 5 | | Item Weight | 106 Grams | | Item weight | 106 Grams | | Manufacturer | WEICON | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 12. | | Material | glass fibre reinforced polyamide | | Model Number | 10006786 | | Part Number | 51000005 | | Product dimensions | 16.2L x 12W centimetres | | Set Name | 1st Set | | Specification Met | TÜV NORD | | UPC | 795622745223 | | Unit Count | 12.0 count | | Usage | Electrical work, Residential electrical wiring, Commercial electrical wiring, Industrial electrical wiring | ## Product Details - **Brand:** WEICON - **Colour:** Blue/Red - **Handle material:** Glass fiber reinforced polyamide - **Material:** glass fibre reinforced polyamide - **Product dimensions:** 16.2L x 12W centimetres ## Images ![No. 5 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71pLGBWpLmL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Are the weicon no 5 wire strippers strong and reliable? can they strip twin core cable? thanks.** A: Good morning, the wire stripper WEICON No.5 is completely manufactured in Germany.

If it starts to dull, I have a tip for you. *by A***Y on 7 February 2021* These work very well. The only slight drawback is that, although the blades are supposed to be replaceable, this is only really true for the top blade, and they are also overpriced and I really feel at least one spare blade should have come with the tool. It has finally gone dull after many, many wire strips such that it sometimes doesn't strip properly. Having said that, here's a great tip I just discovered after balking at the cost of a new blade. If you look straight into the jaws of the tool from the front and push the red length adjuster away from you, you'll see a small pozi head screw holding in the top blade. Carefully remove this with a mini screwdriver and you can take this blade out (take note of which way round it goes - the flat side goes towards the nose of the tool). Now you can actually sharpen this blade yourself, if you have something suitable. It doesn't need much. In fact, you could probably just lay it flat side down on some leather and strop it sharp. I just did this and it is as good as new. ## Frequently Bought Together - WEICON Automatic Wire Stripper No. 5 | adjustable 24-10 AWG (0.2-6.0 mm²) | Multi-Tool | Integrated Side Cutter (max. 2.0 mm) | Ergonomic Shape | for Round Cables - WEICON Cable Stripper No. 4-16 | Multi Stripping Knife | adjustable cutting depth | for all common round cables | Working range 4-16 mm Ø - WEICON Cable Stripper No. S 4-28 Multi | Integrated Stripping Function | High Safety | Adjustable Cutting Depth | for Round Cables | Working Range 4-28 mm Ø --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ni/products/60487584-no-5](https://www.desertcart.ni/products/60487584-no-5) --- *Product available on Desertcart Nicaragua* *Store origin: NI* *Last updated: 2026-07-08*
