Why Choose the Partex PWS-GUN1 Automatic Wire Stripper and Cutter?

The Partex PWS-GUN1 is a versatile and durable self-adjusting automatic wire stripper and cutter designed for efficient preparation of electrical wires and cables in industrial, commercial and domestic electrical installations. As part of the Partex PWS wire stripping tool range, it combines automatic insulation stripping and integrated wire cutting in a convenient handheld tool, making it ideal for electricians, control panel builders and industrial maintenance engineers.

Featuring a self-adjusting stripping mechanism, the PWS-GUN1 automatically adapts to different wire sizes, allowing insulation to be stripped and removed in a single operation. Its adjustable stripping depth and length provide greater control when preparing conductors for terminal connections, crimping and electrical assembly. The integrated cutting function eliminates the need to switch between separate stripping and cutting tools during routine wiring tasks.

Designed for soft-insulated electrical wires with conductor cross-sections from 0.2–6.0 mm², equivalent to approximately 24–10 AWG, the Partex PWS-GUN1 is suitable for a wide range of electrical installation and automation applications. Its lightweight construction, weighing approximately 230 g, and practical handheld design make it an efficient solution for repetitive wire preparation in workshops, electrical cabinets and on-site installations.

Efficient Wire Stripping and Cutting for Professional Electrical Work

Accurate wire stripping is essential for producing reliable electrical connections and reducing the risk of conductor damage during installation. The Partex PWS-GUN1 automatic wire stripper simplifies this process by using a self-adjusting mechanism that grips the conductor, cuts through the insulation and removes the insulation section in a single operation. This helps improve consistency and reduces the manual effort associated with traditional stripping tools.

The integrated wire cutting function allows electricians and panel builders to cut and prepare conductors using one compact tool. Its adjustable stripping length and depth enable users to adapt the stripping operation to different cable insulation types and termination requirements, making it particularly useful when preparing wires for terminal blocks, connector assemblies and bootlace ferrules.

The PWS-GUN1 is designed for professional users who regularly prepare electrical conductors during installation, assembly and maintenance work. Its combination of automatic stripping, integrated cutting and durable construction makes it a practical addition to electrical toolkits and industrial wiring workstations.

Typical Applications

  • Electrical control panel assembly and wiring.
  • Industrial automation and PLC control system installations.
  • Preparation of conductors for terminal blocks and connectors.
  • Wire preparation before crimping bootlace ferrules and electrical terminals.
  • Machine building and OEM electrical equipment manufacturing.
  • Electrical maintenance, repair and retrofit projects.
  • Commercial and domestic electrical installation work.
  • Instrumentation and low-voltage control wiring.
  • Electrical workshops and production assembly lines.
  • General-purpose cutting and stripping of compatible insulated conductors.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Partex PWS-GUN1 used for?

The Partex PWS-GUN1 is a self-adjusting automatic wire stripper and cutter used to remove insulation from electrical conductors and cut wires to length. It is suitable for electrical installation, control panel assembly, industrial automation and maintenance applications.

What wire sizes can the PWS-GUN1 strip?

The PWS-GUN1 is designed for soft-insulated electrical wires with conductor cross-sections from 0.2–6.0 mm², equivalent to approximately 24–10 AWG. This makes it suitable for a broad range of electrical control and installation wiring.

Does the Partex PWS-GUN1 automatically adjust to different wire sizes?

Yes. The self-adjusting stripping mechanism adapts to compatible wire sizes and removes insulation in one operation. The stripping depth and length can also be adjusted to suit different insulation and conductor preparation requirements.

Can the PWS-GUN1 cut wires as well as strip insulation?

Yes. The PWS-GUN1 incorporates an integrated wire cutting function, allowing users to cut compatible electrical conductors and strip their insulation using the same handheld tool. This makes it convenient for preparing wires before terminal connection or crimping.

Does the Partex PWS-GUN1 require batteries or an electrical power supply?

No. The PWS-GUN1 is a manually operated automatic wire stripper and cutter. Its mechanical stripping mechanism operates when the handles are squeezed, so no batteries or external electrical power supply are required.
