IDEAL Electrical 45-025 Lil Ripper Stripper - Slitting Blade, V-Notch, Flat Blade Clip, Looping Holes, Twist-Assist Wire Connector Wrench

Brand: IDEAL Electrical

Availability set by the retailer

The IDEAL Electrical 45-025 Lil Ripper Stripper is a compact, pocket-sized handheld cable stripping tool designed for electricians to cleanly and quickly strip the outer jacket of NM (non-metallic) cable such as Romex. A flat blade clips the outer sheathing to remove excess wire jacket, while a V-notch strips the outer jacket off the inner wires cleanly without damaging the conductors. The slip-resistant injection-molded elastomer handle provides a secure, comfortable grip for clean rips, cuts, and strips, and the tool fits in the palm so it does not weigh down a tool belt. Looping holes form the perfect loop for screw-on devices, and a built-in Twist-Assist wire connector wrench at the end of the tool quickly tightens most twist-on wire connectors, combining several cable-prep steps into one compact tool. Brand: IDEAL Electrical (Ideal Industries); Model: 45-025; Material: High Carbon Steel blade with injection-molded elastomer handle; Color: Yellow; Product Dimensions: 7.5 inches L x 4 inches W; Application: stripping the outer jacket of NM cable and preparing conductors for devices and connectors; Rating: 4.3 out of 5 stars (1,293 ratings); ASIN: B00529WLGK.

Choosing Electrical

What makes a hand tool safe for electrical work?

Insulated tools rated to a recognized standard such as VDE 1000V protect against shock up to their rated voltage when the insulation is intact. Always verify the circuit is de-energized first — insulated tools are a backup, not a substitute for lockout/tagout and testing with a verified voltage tester.

Which wire tool do I need?

Match the tool to the task: wire strippers remove insulation cleanly at the right gauge, linesman pliers grip and cut, and diagonal cutters trim flush. For repeated connections, a self-adjusting stripper speeds work and reduces nicks. Always match the tool to the wire gauge and insulation type.
