Why this one
Capacity covers common gauges
This wire stripper tool handles conductors from 24 AWG up to 10 AWG, spanning the range most often encountered in residential and commercial low-voltage wiring.
Pistol-grip trigger action
Unlike conventional plier-style designs that require you to squeeze two handles together, this tool uses a gun-type trigger that lets you orient your wrist naturally and operate with one hand.
Lightweight at only 125 g
Carrying a heavy tool all day adds up, especially for electricians climbing ladders and reaching into tight spaces.
Designed for working tradespeople
Whether you are an apprentice building your first set of electrician tools or a journeyman replacing a worn-out stripper, the gun-type form factor offers a comfortable, intuitive grip.
Teng Tools service tool quality
This wire cutter stripper sits within the Teng Tools service tool lineup, built for professionals who depend on their hand tools day after day.
Read the full description
When you are pulling wire and making terminations all day, the last thing you need is a tool that fights you. The Teng Tools CP55 uses a gun-type pistol grip and a self adjusting wire stripper mechanism that automatically sizes to the conductor and removes insulation in a single trigger squeeze. That means less hand strain and faster work, whether you are roughing in a new build or troubleshooting circuits on a service call.
The tool covers 24 through 10 AWG, which takes in the vast majority of branch-circuit and control wiring you will encounter on residential and light commercial jobs. Just insert the wire, pull the trigger, and the jaws grip the insulation while the body pulls it free. There is no dial to set and no fumbling with notched jaws to find the right gauge.
At only 125 g (about 4.4 ounces), the CP55 practically disappears in your hand or your pouch. The red handle stands out in a crowded tool bag so you can grab it without looking. Whether you are an electrician, a low-voltage technician, or a maintenance professional, this tool earns its place in your daily carry by doing one job and doing it right: clean, fast strips with no nicked conductors.
