Review: This tool really works and I am happy I bought it. - This is a very nice wire stripper/cutter. I use this all the time now. Makes stripping wires for solder jobs a breeze. I highly reccomend. I have used it for 12 gage Nomex and it strips the outer casing right off and then the individual wires too. I also use it for my electric guitar builds with 18-22 gage wire stranded or solid. Review: A "Must-Have" for Vehicle Upfits and Complex Wiring Hubs - If you have ever spent an afternoon stripping dozens of wires for a central power block or a relay board, you know how quickly hand fatigue sets in with traditional manual strippers. I added these Klein Tools 11061 self-adjusting strippers to my kit specifically for a professional vehicle upfit, and they have completely changed my workflow. Effortless Speed and Precision The self-adjusting mechanism is a massive time-saver. When you're moving between 12 AWG power leads for a siren and 22 AWG signal wires for a lightbar controller, not having to hunt for the right "notch" in the tool is huge. You just insert the wire, squeeze, and it pulls a clean strip every single time without nicking the copper strands. It’s consistent, repeatable, and significantly faster than manual alternatives. Built for Professional Environments These are true "Klein" quality—heavy-duty and built to last. I’ve used them in cramped footwells and inside server racks where you don't have much room to maneuver, and the tension thumb wheel allows you to fine-tune the stripping force for different insulation types. The Cutter: The built-in wire cutter is surprisingly sharp and handles 10-22 AWG with ease, allowing you to trim and strip with one tool in your hand. The Adjustable Stopper: If you need a consistent strip length for terminal blocks or crimp connectors, the adjustable depth stopper is a great feature that ensures a professional, uniform finish across the entire project. Ergonomics and Grip The handles are well-padded and provide plenty of leverage. Even after stripping wires for a full 12-circuit fuse block, I didn’t experience the usual palm soreness. The tool feels balanced and "industrial" rather than flimsy, which is exactly what I need for gear that is going to be tossed in a duty bag or a workshop drawer. Final Thoughts For basic household repairs, these might be overkill, but for anyone doing professional automotive electrical work, security equipment installations, or complex hobbyist electronics, they are an essential investment. They provide a level of speed and professional consistency that manual strippers simply can’t match. ## Features - VERSATILE WIRE STRIPPER TOOL AND CUTTER: For stripping and cutting on 10-20 AWG solid, 12-22 AWG stranded, and 12/2 and 14/2 Romex cable (all sizes) and other nonmetallic (type NM) sheathed cable - ADJUSTABLE: Control the length of the core strip with the adjustable stopper - IMPROVED PERFORMANCE: Precise stripping of smaller gauge wire with the tensioning thumb wheel - QUICK STRIP WIRE STRIPPER: Handle is equipped with an integrated wire cutter for added convenience - REDUCED HAND FATIGUE: Grooved grips on the handles provide ergonomic support - HVAC APPLICATIONS: Easily strip the outer jacket of thermostat wires and individual wires with this specialized tool - Romex: Registered trademark of Southwire Company ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00CXKOEQ6 | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,578 in Tools & Home Improvement ( See Top 100 in Tools & Home Improvement ) #9 in Wire Cutters | | Brand | KLEIN TOOLS | | Brand Name | KLEIN TOOLS | | Color | Blue/Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 10,314 Reviews | | Cutting width | 0.34 Millimeters | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00092644420023 | | Grip Type | Ergonomic | | Handle Material | Plastic | | Included Components | Tools & Accessories | | Item Dimensions L x W | 8.25"L x 4"W | | Item Type Name | Klein Tools 11061 Wire Stripper / Wire Cutter for Solid and Stranded AWG Wire, Heavy Duty Kleins are Self Adjusting | | Item Weight | 12.6 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Klein Tools | | Manufacturer Part Number | 11061 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | 1 year manufacturer | | Material | Blend | | Material Type | Blend | | Model Number | 11061 | | Product Dimensions | 8.25"L x 4"W | | Set Name | Heavy Duty Professional Set | | Specific Uses For Product | Professional | | UPC | 092644420023 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** KLEIN TOOLS - **Color:** Blue/Black - **Handle Material:** Plastic - **Material:** Blend - **Product Dimensions:** 8.25"L x 4"W ## Images ![11061 Self-Adjusting Stripper / Cutter, Heavy Duty, for 10-20 AWG Solid, 12-22 AWG Stranded, and Romex Wire 12/2 and 14/3 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41Lsx0EhHbL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Has anyone used the Irwin 2078300 Self-Adjusting Wire Stripper? How do they compare?** A: I don't have the Klein, but the Irwin's would strip well when wires have no outer jacket, like a TW wire. With THHN or THWN, which have outer jackets it slips off. You need to nick a THHN with another wire stripper before the Irwin's would grab & strip it. For small gauge wires like AWG 18-22, the Irwin's were excellent. **Q: HI witch country is made klein ? this better or neiko ? or similar both?** A: I have the Neiko and that’s why I’m looking at these. The new Neiko strippers are absolute TRASH. I sent them back. **Q: What's Klein Tools Warranty for this product?** A: 1 year according to Klein Tools site **Q: These are rated for 10-22 gauge but can they strip 8 gauge?** A: I have some 8 gauge 133/29 tinned Marine copper wire with a PVC jacket. The 8 GA. marine wire with PVC jacket didn't slip right in from the side needed to be pushed in from the front. The first strip was fairly bad, wire was uneven and developed bird cages. However the second strip went much better and the stranded wire was straight. However were the stripper cut into the PVC insulation on both side of the wire the cut wasn't straight 90 degrees, the insulation was cut a wedge shape on both sides of the wire. so there's a gap approx. 1/8" that wedge shape from the wire to the full diameter of the insulation. Though it may work to install a connector it's not considered in the trade to be a viable strip. The stripper needs to cut the insulation at 90 degrees from the wire so a when installing a connector there no gap between the insulation and connector terminal. So I would have to answer NO it won't, at least on some 8 gauge wire and insulation. The wire I tried stripping is 8 AWG AWM style 1029 or AWM style 1231 E73051 105C 600 volts VW-1 CSA TEW AWM T A/6 1050 600 VOLT FT1 LL45926 Sold as 8ga Stranded Tinned Copper (133/29) UL1028, TEW, PVC Primary Wire TEW stands for Thermoplastic Equipment Wire ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This tool really works and I am happy I bought it. *by L***K on March 14, 2026* This is a very nice wire stripper/cutter.

Best is class I suspect. For multiple decades I've used much lesser tools to wire strip include pocket knifes and the combo tool wire cutter with stripper. This tool excels in it's single purpose. Handles many gauges of wire flawlessly. Glad I bought it. Expensive and worth it. ## Frequently Bought Together - Klein Tools 11061 Self-Adjusting Stripper / Cutter, Heavy Duty, for 10-20 AWG Solid, 12-22 AWG Stranded, and Romex Wire 12/2 and 14/3 - Klein Tools 11063W Wire Cutter / Stripper, Heavy Duty Automatic Tool for 8-20 AWG Solid and 10-22 AWG Stranded Electrical Wire - Klein Tools 3005CR Wire Crimper Tool, Ratcheting Insulated Terminal Crimper for 10 to 22 AWG Wire --- ## 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.co.uk/products/10470389-11061-self-adjusting-stripper-cutter-heavy-duty-for-10-20](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/10470389-11061-self-adjusting-stripper-cutter-heavy-duty-for-10-20) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-24*
