Gardner Bender Cable Ripper

Cuts into NM cable cleanly, so your strip work feels less fussy and a lot more controlled.

Built for 12/2 and 14/2 NM cable, with a nickel plated finish that helps it hold up.

Product Overview:

If you work with Romex often, you know the drill. A tool either bites cleanly or turns the job into a small headache. This cable ripper gives you a simple, steady way to slit the outer jacket on 12/2 and 14/2 NM cable, and it also handles 6 to 14 AWG wire gauge checks and stripping. The nickel plated finish keeps corrosion in check, which is a nice bit of practical sense. At 4 inches long, it sits easy in your hand and stays out of the way. Picture a neater bench, less fiddling, and that quiet little click of a job going right.

Key Features:

• NM cable cutting control gives you a cleaner slit on Romex and other nonmetallic sheathed cable, so you can move faster with less fuss.
• Wire gauge checking and stripping covers 6 to 14 AWG, which keeps one tool doing the small tasks you reach for all day.
• Nickel plated finish helps resist corrosion, so it keeps its look and feel through regular use.
• Compact 4 inch size sits well in the hand and tucks away without hogging space in your pouch.
• Built for 12/2 and 14/2 NM cable it matches the work you are already doing, which saves a bit of second guessing.
