Cable Prep CPT-1100 Drop Cable/Coax Cable Stripper, RG7/RG11
Each CPT tool is factory-calibrated to remove the right amount of cable jacket, cut the braid and dielectric to the proper length, and expose the center conductor in one smooth operation.
NOTE: The notched blade in the cartridge eliminates the risk of scoring the center conductor and cuts through the jacket, braid, foil and dielectric leaving the center conductor exposed. The shallow blade cuts through only the jacket of the cables.
FEATURES
- Three operations in one step.
- Hardened tool-steel blades.
- Factory-calibrated strip-back dimensions.
- Patented clean-out feature.
- Replaceable cartridges.
- Color-coded bodies and cartridges.
The CPT Series of cable stripping tools strip the jacket and cut back the braid and dielectric to the proper dimensions on braided and braid-replacement drop cables, including standard (single) through quad shielded RG-6, -59, -7, and -11 cables.
- An Ergonomic, Efficient Design: The CPT body is comfortable to hold and easy to operate with either hand. Because jacket, braid, and dielectric are cut with one simple motion, cables can be prepared quickly and easily.
- Hardened, Tool-steel Blades: Made of the highest quality steel, CPT blades ensure optimum performance over a long life. Each cartridge can prepare 2,500 - 5,000 cables, depending on braid coverage.
- Factory Calibration: Pre-calibrated dimensions for different applications help to ensure that jackets are stripped and braid and dielectric are cut back properly.
- Patented Cleanout Feature: The patented cleanout feature of the CPT tool automatically removes excess jacket, braid, and dielectric from the tool after stripping.
- Color-coded Bodies and Cartridges: Color-coding of the tool bodies and replaceable cartridges makes it easy to identify the right tool for the application. The cartridges snap easily into place.
- Lightweight Durability: Rugged enough for the toughest jobs, lightweight CPT tools offer consistent, precision performance even under harsh conditions.
REPLACING CARTRIDGES
The purpose of this tool is to provide consistent quality, while saving time. For this tool to perform correctly, the cartridge must be replaced when the blades are dull. Depending on the cable you are using, the number of cuts per blade cartridge varies. For best performance the blade should be kept free of any debris or floodant residue. If you see that the cut is not as clean, the braid is straggled, or the tool takes more revolutions to cut - REPLACE THE CARTRIDGE IMMEDIATELY.
HOW TO REPLACE THE CARTRIDGE
While holding the tool, depress the lever and grasp the cartridge on both sides. Then pull cartridge straight down and out. Reverse this process for cartridge installation and then snap the cartridge in place. Move fingers away from cartridge and let go of lever.
