RE: Wire stripper


Hi Andy!
1/ Should be OK - just depends on the smallest gauge the stripper goes to - see this piccy shows the jaws - they would be great for teflon, most seem to go to 22g. So long as the model you get goes down to 24g.
Jaycar don't have them.
Element 14 or RS.
There is a metric Duratool one that goes down to 0.5mm - should do it.

2/ If you get the size of the conductor matched to hole in the jaws, the insulation will be cut 80%-90% through by the jaws, and the only stress is breaking the last 10%-20% of the teflon and sliding the cut bit off the end.
