Manual wire strippers typically have adjustable blades, allowing the user to strip wires of various sizes.
Automatic wire strippers may have a spring-loaded mechanism that automatically adjusts to the wire size or have interchangeable jaws to accommodate different wire sizes.
Some wire strippers have additional features such as crimpers, which allow the user to crimp connectors onto the stripped wires.
The steel used to make wire strippers may vary in quality and hardness, affecting the durability and lifespan of the tool.
The size of the wire stripper may also vary, from small handheld tools for delicate wires to larger tools for industrial applications.
Wire strippers may also be categorized by the specific type of wire they are designed to strip, such as coaxial cable or ribbon cable.
Wire strippers can be categorized into two types: manual wire strippers and automatic wire strippers. A manual wire stripper is considered the most versatile; to use it, the user needs to manually rotate it while applying pressure around the insulation in order to cut or adjust the wires. In the case of an automatic wire stripper, one side is held tight and, simultaneously, the other side is cut and removed. An automatic wire stripper can help even a novice cut and strip most wires quickly. However, it only works for certain size ranges of wires. It could break small wires, and large wires may not fit into its jaws.
