New wire stripper for the solar sector
Weicon Tools No. 5 Solar Pro
The
tool manufacturer Weicon Tools offers a whole range of special tools for the
solar sector, which are used in the production, installation and maintenance of
photovoltaic systems, solar thermal power plants and solar collectors.
For this exciting and fast-growing economic sector, Weicon Tools has developed a special wire stripper – the No. 5 Solar Pro.
Wire Stripper No. 5 Solar Pro
The automatic wire stripper is used to strip all common solar cables, such as H1Z2Z2-K from 1.5 to 10 mm². The adjustable length stop ranging from 5 to 25 mm ensures outstanding precision and accuracy. The knives of the Wire Stripper No. 5 Solar Pro are hardened additionally in order to easily remove multilayer rubber insulations. The length stop can be removed, if required. The wire stripper automatically adjusts to the required conductor cross-section, so no manual adjustment is necessary. The tool features an integrated side cutter, which is suitable for conductors made of copper and aluminium up to a diameter of three millimetres. Thanks to its slim design, the wire stripper can also be used in areas that are difficult to access, such as on solar modules or on the inverter. The mechanics of the tool are very smooth-running and have proven to be durable and reliable in numerous tests. The wire stripper has a non-slip multi-component handle in a yellow and black “ice crack” design. It has an eyelet to attach a strap for fall protection, and it has a labelling area where the tool can be personalised. In addition, the wire stripper has a locking mechanism for space-saving storage. As with all strippers of the product line No. 5, the galvanised blades can be replaced.
The wire stripper is 160 mm long, weighs 140 g and is made of glass-fibre reinforced polyamide.
Ergonomics and safety
In
the development of the stripper, great attention was paid to an ergonomic
design in addition to user friendliness. The ergonomic, non-slip shape of the
handle and grip zones ensure a safe handling at all times and fatigue-free work
even over longer periods of time.
Made in Germany
As
usual with Weicon Tools, the wire stripper was developed and manufactured
entirely in Germany. The tools are produced in the German town of Ascheberg,
Westphalia, and the steel for the knives is from Solingen.
