Technical details & possible applications of stripping tools

Our stripping tools have been specially developed for the precise and safe removal of cable sheaths from XLPE-insulated medium and high-voltage cables and overhead lines. They enable precise, damage-free stripping of the insulation so that the conductors and shields are optimally prepared for further processing or assembly.

Performance features

  • Adjustable cutting depth for different cable diameters

  • Rotary and longitudinal cutting function for clean cutting

  • Robust blades made from high-alloy tool steel for a long service life

  • Ergonomic design for safe working even under construction site conditions

  • Models available for cable diameters from approx. 20 to over 160 mm

Typical areas of application

  • Grid construction & energy supply: Stripping of medium and high-voltage cables

  • Industrial plant construction: preparation of cables for joint and final assembly

  • Overhead line construction: Processing of ACSR cables (Aluminium Conductor Steel Reinforced)

  • Service & maintenance: cable work as part of repairs and renovations

Precise cutting ensures that the underlying shielding or insulation is not damaged, which is particularly important for operational safety in high-voltage cables.

Accessories & system integration

We recommend complementary products from our portfolio for optimum use:

  • Hydraulic crimping tools for cable lugs and connectors

  • Hydraulic power packs for powerful drives in larger systems

  • Hydraulic hoses and couplings for flexible applications

Quality & safety

All tools are tested in accordance with our ISO 9001:2015 quality management system and fulfil the current standards for cable processing in energy and industrial systems. This means we can guarantee you long-term operational safety and a long service life in daily use.

With stripping tools from KW Hydraulik, you can work precisely, safely and efficiently - whether for network expansion, cable service or complex industrial projects.
