STANLEY FATMAX Automatic Wire Stripper, Strips 10-22 AWG Wire with Spring Loaded Handles, Comfortable Grip annd Adjustable Wire Stop

I recently added the Stanley FATMAX Automatic Wire Stripper (FMHT0-96230) to my toolbox, and it’s quickly become one of my go-to hand tools for electrical work. It’s a solid choice for both DIYers and professionals who need reliable wire preparation without fuss. 🔧 Build & Design From first touch, the build quality feels robust — typical of the Stanley FATMAX line. The tool is designed to handle a wide range of wire sizes, automatically adjusting jaws to strip wires from around 10–22 AWG (0.2–6 mm) without damaging the core. ⚡ Performance What makes this tool stand out is how effortlessly it strips insulation: place the wire in the jaws, squeeze, and the stripper does the rest. The adjustable wire stop lets you set consistent strip lengths, which is great when doing repetitive jobs or prepping lots of cable. The spring-loaded handles feel comfortable for extended use, and the ergonomic grip helps reduce fatigue — especially helpful when working on bigger jobs or longer lengths of cable. 🛠️ Versatility This wire stripper does more than just strip: it also offers cutting and crimping capabilities for insulated and non-insulated terminals. That means it often replaces multiple tools in your kit, saving space and time. 📈 Pros & Cons Pros: • Automatic adjustment for a variety of wire gauges • Easy and consistent stripping with adjustable stop • Comfortable spring handles for repetitive use • Adds cutting and crimping in one tool Cons: • A bit heavier than simpler manual strippers • Not ideal for very thick industrial cable beyond its spec 📊 Overall The Stanley FATMAX Automatic Wire Stripper is a well-built, dependable tool that performs exactly as expected. Whether you’re doing basic home electrics or more involved wiring tasks, it speeds up prep work and reduces mistakes. It’s a great value pick for anyone serious about electrical or DIY work. ⭐ Recommended for: electricians, tradespeople, DIY enthusiasts

Wow what a fantastic product and I wish I'd bought them years ago. I've always made do with the old type of wire cutters. These arrived just a short while ago and I was keen to try them straight away. I've done a short video as I was so impressed at how quick and easy it is to cut different types of wire using these cutters. So I've cut ring main cable, a normal extension lead type cable 13 amp and finally just to test the limits I tried an old phone cable. Absolutely no adjustments required on any of the cables, just place the cable between the jaws squeeze the handles and hey presto, the wire is stripped.

Bought as a present been told it’s great and easy to use.

I like Stanley hand tools, but this is very nice. Wires are stripped effortlessly. The cutter works fine too, but you have to get the cable between the handles; but hey ho. As a wire stripper, it is adjustable and properly excellent. 5 stars.

Stripped wires effortlessly and saved me so much time. Highly recommended.

Brilliant product that is worth every penny. Produces neat results and saves time and waste.

These have been a brilliant bit of kit to have whilst completing a Electrical Installations course. I would highly recommend them to anyone carrying out any electrical work. They are nice and easy to hold in your hand, not too bulky. They feel very sturdy too. They cleanly strip the outer insulation, and the insulation of the cables with ease. It also has an adjustable setting so you can strip the insulation to your desired length up to 16mm. The wire cutter are also great. I haven't used the crimpers yet so I cannot comment on them.

Wow great tool. Makes stripping wire a doddle. Not only that but it includes a wire cutter and the crimper beats dedicated crimping tools. One of the best tools I've bought.

Ürün 0,1 mm2 kabloyu da soydu. 6 mm2 kabloyu da soydu. Denedim. 6 lık kabloda kesme kısmında biraz zorlandı. Nya kablo için kesme ucu uzun kullanımda bozulabilir. soymada sıkıntı yok.

Super

Tool strips and cuts all wire gauges so simple. So quick. Sheath and out insulation round of flat. Micro adjustment of wire gauge to smaller gauges. What would a 1/2 hour to 1 hour now takes literally seconds. Never look back to another tool. These is an issue with small lengths of wire slippage too much on the insulation before stripping.

I haven't had a chance to use them yet, but they seem really solid. I expect they will work very well.

Nice to see Stanley branching out into electrical tools. I use this to strip the cover off ethernet cables. What used to be a risky process of slowly adjusting a cutting knife on a rotating striping, hoping you don't nick the internal wires, has now become a simple squeeze. Works everytime. Never nicks.
