The Weidmuller Jacket Stripping Tool
The Weidmuller jacket stripping tool is a heavy duty tool for both fibre optic and coaxial cables. It has an adjustment lever for changing the slitting direction from circumferential to longitudinal cuts.
The cutting depth is adjustable for insulation thickness up to 4.5mm and the cable support arm is spring loaded to keep the cable in position while slitting.

An inexpensive hand-held tool for removing the primary and secondary buffer coatings from optical fibres.
These tools are made with cutting apertures accurate to 0.0005" and mechanically strip fibre coatings with no nicks, cuts or scratches.
For removing secondary coatings of 900µm from 125µm clad fibres, select the blue or white handled tool, for 250µm loose tube fibres, select the red handled tool from the table below. Optical fibres with cladding diameters greater than 125µm may be successfully stripped using the appropriate No-Nik buffer stripping tool.
Notes on using No-Nik stripping tools:
Each tool has an arrow showing the direction of stripping; holding
the tool in the right hand the arrow should be on top; holding
the tool in the left hand the arrow should be under the tool.
Don't try and strip all the buffer in one go, take three or four
'bites' at it to remove the coating. Between each strip clean
the tool by opening the jaws and pulling the plastic covers back
and releasing. Leaving debris in the blades between strips can
cause fibre breakage.
Other cutting diameter tools can be supplied to order from
the extensive range from Clauss.
