Its good you work for a company that allows these type of quality of life tool expenses. Our hands are irreplaceable and anything that reduces the wear and tear on them is worth it.
The cool thing about this tool is that it leaves the waste insulation on the cable. This lets you strip a bunch of cables and carry them up a ladder or something and then remove the waste part, preventing the ends from fraying/getting damaged in transport. Great review Lexi!
They make these for both AL and CU wires. I think you maky be using the AL on the copper wire and that is why it leaves the small piece on the wire that you are having to reverse. Our is the CU type and it works like when you did the AL and the 500 CU wire. It strips down so you don't have to reverse it, the wire just comes out the side. We love our stripper and will probably buy another one as a spare. Thanks for posting and I enjoy the videos Lexi.
I’m doing a steel fabrication plant and we have 20 or so panels with everything from 500 kcmil to 3awg feeding equipment. My company owns one of those but the foreman who has it won’t give it up. I’m running out of razor blades🙁
I'm curious: Can I assume they're making you supply the razor blades? If so, I'd tell the boss man either cough up the stripper or start supplying the blades or some wire ain't gonna get terminated.
You: hey boss why is this tool locked up here? Boss: Productivity You: I'm just gonna move it ok? Boss: 👷🏻♂️ 🔫👷🏻♂️ feeling productive Bob? Let this be a lesson put down the Milwaukee stuff and go play with the Ryobis
@@TOOL_TECHNICAL lol no quiet. We make electrical boxes for the city street lights and power distribution so when the guys need to strip 100 short pieces of 000 AWG wire it’s easier if yours not holding the wire stripper.
A knife nick on a wire strand will have you redoing them with some inspectors. Some counties dont have enough budget and rely on state electrical inspectors. He looked at a panel i did with bifocals. Commented I was the only one who didnt need to redo them today due to knife nicks. With the price of wire might be worthwhile.
really cool! Seems to me like youre supposed to turn it as you put the wire in? then it cuts it all off in a helical motion until its at length, and it spits it out the bit.
Thanks for showing this cool piece of equipment. I have been waiting to see this run. Can I use this battery on other Milwaukee tools or just this device? NICE!!!!
Hey it looks like a good tool, but in my job as service guy, the wires are smaller, and the handling is a lite bit easier, but i think i can it use at home actuelly 🙂
The industrial LNG plant im on requires us to use these or something like it. While I agree with you there are practical applications. And as an electrical inspector I’d rather see an inexperienced person use this than butcher strands on a low voltage cable.
If you have a set you have to strip back to back, this will be convenient for that application. That might be the main reason and or designs idea for this product. And yeah with skill makes speed.
My old boss never buying that stuff.. We used a sheetrock razor. Small companies can not afford fancy tools. I learned from an old korean vet and ww2 guys .
I just want to say that having used this tool several times, you need to feed it in, just strips the whole thing in a spiral action, no need to pull off insulation
Politely, are you doing something wrong? I watched this video when I was thinking of buying it but didn't because you have to rip the insulation off. Ended up getting the dewalt one since its comes off in a helix and doesn't need to be ripped off. Today, I just watched 2 different reviews of the m12 & m18 strippers and the insulation comes right off in a helix. So I came back to watch yours and it looks like it's getting stuck in the ejection port.
So many people say "ought" for zero, and so many others say "nought". I think I finally settled on "nought" because that's the British term for zero or nothing (dreadnought = fear nothing).
I know some guys that would use this on 14 gauge wire.. I've been curious, do you work for yourself or work with a shop? Are you a journeywoman or a master? Thanks!
"We're gon a do an inch and a half cause thats a decent size" get you a lady like this my goodness Jokes aside cool tool great RUclips but I feel for the price it's a little much to be practical but that's just me idk
I laugh. I've seen so many videos with plumbers using a Pro Press and the comments are flooded with idiots saying how its worse then soldering on copper. I look at the comments here and everyone gives tools that make a job faster, safer, more productive all thumbs up. Old people be old, can't get out of the past.
I like these videos but that ain't how we use the stripper. You gotta just feed it then rotate the cutter and it peels it like butter in one single piece. Literally 2 seconds lighting McQueen cah chow
Sister stay vigilant of your serowding s thank you for sharing your love please stay armed with a concealed weapon permit please love from your friend Kenny horstman may god make way your path smooth sister take heed sister godbless you and your family and friends I am thankful for your help and blessings you rock sister
Yeah I was looking at what battery tools they had going on for cables. I do like trying new things to make life easier. It's a 4oz knife that does the job in a few seconds, vs another 20lbs case and tool to carry around, it's not worth it considering the speed takes 10x longer than just using a knife.
what a waste of time and money. I could strip that with a knife faster than it took you to set up the tool. It saved you a shit load of time? How long does it take you to strip a piece of wire? lol

Good point
Or you know strip it when going to terminate 😂
@@ElectricalCurrent-bz7ou All kinda options. 🤣
It's not supposed to do that. It's user error.
Very nice seeing a real woman for a change :) Happy work!
Now that is one sweet looking electrician !

Few years in an this is the first time seeing it in use thanks enjoyed it

Your Foreman is costing your company a bit of doe..
@@danielgeng2306 considering the foreman who has it is working on a school that will pay 12 million I think we’re okay.

We have one of those at my work, it’s actually strapped down to a bench. Works really well in a production setting as well.

Great Video. Nice tool. Thank you for sharing
One inch is a little to small but one and a half is the way to go. Good to know that there is still hope for me. Thank you. 🙃
Excellent video. Thank you for sharing. Subscribed.
Hear that boys? Inch and a half is a decent size. 👍
Hahaha
I have used the Dewalt… loved it!! But I use Milwaukee… soooooo I’ve been wanting them to bring one out!!!
Such awesome gear thanks for the sweet demo Lex

You have to be a dunce to damage conductor with a knife
Are you required to reverse it off or can you just keep the trigger pinned and pull it off?
Looks like you can stay in forward
I see it works ok on THHN cable, how about on a more flexible, multi stranded copper cable?
really cool!
Seems to me like youre supposed to turn it as you put the wire in? then it cuts it all off in a helical motion until its at length, and it spits it out the bit.
That's how I was trained to use it. Spits the shavings out the side and on to the next one. No need to reverse and pull anything off
@@tvbrauer1566 i thought so! I dont work in this field at all, but doing product design myself it just seems logical.
Cool , easy and safe for rookies
Did you get a new camera? looks pro
Thanks for that
👍 was wondering if you can demo a Milwaukee m18 crimper
Do you have a tools list that would be your “go to” tools?
Thanks for showing this cool piece of equipment. I have been waiting to see this run. Can I use this battery on other Milwaukee tools or just this device? NICE!!!!
If it’s m18, yes. All m18 batteries fit on all m18 tools, and same for m12, all m12 batteries fit on all m12 tools.
It's pretty cool but is it necessary? I know klein makes a stripper that is pretty slick but I just use my knife. I'm sure that tool isn't cheap.
Great see you got your glasses on 😊 well for a bit of the video 😂😂 you can always buy tools but not eyes
I’ve only done stuff around my house. What’s the romex in the 500 MCM?
There is no such thing as 500 kcmil romex.....
Ele decapa até quantos milímetros???
I am actually a Milwaukee tool junkie both of my packout towers stand over 6 feet tall. This is a tool I do not possess and I think I have to have it.
Hey it looks like a good tool, but in my job as service guy, the wires are smaller, and the handling is a lite bit easier, but i think i can it use at home actuelly 🙂
if your building a house would it be cost effective to pre wire for solor and generator in case down the road you wanna add?
Honestly anything you pre wire for in the beginning can save you lots of money.
Is 4 ott the same as 40 like 4 zero ?
wow that'd be a huge timesaver over a week, imagine how much time is saved over a year??? plus cleaner than me and a knife
Is it easier than a razor knife?
Maybe it just me but seems faster with a razor knife/box cutter

If your doing one wire yeah. But if your doing multiples no shot
@@nicholasgreen7631industrial is a complete different world tho. Things are definitely a lot more strict
I like this video.
I know what I must do, but I don't know if I have the strength to do it
Nice tool
I just want to say that having used this tool several times, you need to feed it in, just strips the whole thing in a spiral action, no need to pull off insulation
Or make a circular cut and then a lenghtwise cut with a knife and take it off in a second and save a thousand bucks
Does it do 1000MCM?
Seriously Milwaukee, why is this not in a Packout??
I was wondering why you didn't already have one of these.
Swaeet keep it coming. 💪🤤
If you need one, you need one and can afford it.
Politely, are you doing something wrong? I watched this video when I was thinking of buying it but didn't because you have to rip the insulation off.

A knife is faster but I love to have all my cables to be uniform I even measure out my tape to look all the same
Love mine 🤘🏽
So many people say "ought" for zero, and so many others say "nought". I think I finally settled on "nought" because that's the British term for zero or nothing (dreadnought = fear nothing).
Good video, Since Im a cheap mofo I would use a tube cutter with a dull cutting wheel when I had big wire to cut :D
I know a few old heads that use plumbers old wheels as well.
Please use safety glows.
You do not use gloves on rotational or reciprocating tools. That's a nick on the hand vs losing your hand.
she needs the milwake coffe maker it cool
I know some guys that would use this on 14 gauge wire.. I've been curious, do you work for yourself or work with a shop? Are you a journeywoman or a master? Thanks!
The name of the company she works with sometimes is shown on her shirts, vehicle, and on her Facebook page. She's a journeymen.
Wait... everybody doesn't just strip wires with their teeth?! 😂
I think I am in love. But damn 😢😊
500 MCM great Scott 1.21 gigawats

I don’t know about you but I was taught to never step on your wire. Bad habit to get into.
She’s a master at her craft she knows what she is doing ok apprentice.
She's so cute!
Was hoping it was for scrapping wire. Still cool.
She lives in Milwaukee? I thought she lived in like Pennsylvania or virginia or upstate New York or something meep
Seems a clumsy tool to carry around and set up every day. Regular blunt Knife does the job for me.

Así no se usa, ties que ir metiendo al cortador poco apoco para que el cable se pele completo

i can do it faster and just as neat without having to carry a large case and tool, and swap heads.. ill stick with my utility knife.
yep me too

Milwaukee has nice tools but way overpriced .
Visit california
Uau
All you need is Milwaukee hawk bill knife and you can strip the wires without having to depend on a expensive tool
That’s like saying you can use a screwdriver instead of a drill

Sorry not sure but I’ll say it anyways your extremely beautiful
American wire gauge is weird. 😂

Are you not a fan of Dewalt or something
I love your pecas
My knife is cheaper
what a waste of time and money. I could strip that with a knife faster than it took you to set up the tool. It saved you a shit load of time? How long does it take you to strip a piece of wire? lol
nice thats cool
The 500 mcm strip is the way it is supposed to strip.
Much fastes with a exacto type blade
Glad to hear you think an inch and a half is a good size😂😂
She said a decent size. Dont flatter yourself little guy
just do it by hand
I’m faster with my razor knife 😅
What a waste of money.
Not sure she should be around 500mcm with how unnatural she handles that Milwaukee wire stripping tool. Very adorable though. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
My knife is cheaper
