## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do they crimp barrell fittings?**
A: this tool can not crimp at all,
for stripping wires only

**Q: What are the exact dimensions of these strippers? I'm looking for something compact enough to fit into a small toolkit case.**
A: The wire cutter is 6" long, the width of the grip is about 3 5/8" not depressed, and at the tip is about 1 3/16" not depressed.   The thickest section across the length is 5/8" in the grip area.   These measurements are by sight with a ruler.

**Q: Does it have a locking mechanism so it doesn't stay wide open?**
A: Most of us who use this style of stripper... remove the spring so it doesn't self-open. It takes nothing to flick it open with your pinky or ring finger when you grab it.

That auto-opening spring is annoying and it makes your forearm tired earlier in the day. Get rid of it.

**Q: There is another set of numbers on the picture opposite the awg sizes. ie, 1.0. .75, .50, etc.what do these represent? thanks... bob**
A: metric wire diameters  0.039"= 1mm
