Why Choose the Partex PWSA Automatic Wire Strippers?
The Partex PWSA is a durable and efficient automatic wire stripping tool designed for fast, accurate removal of insulation from electrical wires and conductors. Part of the professional Partex PWS wire stripper series, this handheld semi-automatic tool is ideal for electricians, electrical panel builders, maintenance engineers and industrial automation professionals who require consistent wire preparation.
The PWSA uses a mechanical stripping action to grip the conductor, cut through the insulation and remove it in a single operation. After each stripping cycle, the mechanism automatically returns to its starting position, ready for the next wire. This straightforward operation helps reduce repetitive manual work, improve preparation efficiency and achieve consistent results during electrical assembly and installation.
Designed for soft-insulated electrical conductors with a nominal cross-sectional area of 0.25–2.5 mm², the Partex PWSA is particularly suitable for smaller control and instrumentation wiring. Its robust zinc alloy frame, hardened steel working components and PVC-coated handles provide dependable performance, while its compact 170 mm length and approximately 340 g weight make it practical for everyday professional use.

Efficient Wire Preparation for Electrical Installations and Panel Building
Correct insulation removal is an essential part of electrical installation and control panel manufacturing. Wire stripping tools such as the Partex PWSA help prepare conductors for connection to terminal blocks, connectors, ferrules and other electrical components. By gripping the wire and removing the insulation in a single mechanical action, the tool simplifies conductor preparation and reduces the need for separate manual cutting and pulling operations.
The Partex PWS series is designed for professional electricians, automation engineers and electrical assembly technicians who regularly prepare insulated conductors. The PWSA is particularly useful for smaller wire sizes found in industrial control circuits, instrumentation wiring and machine control panels. Its robust metal construction, automatic return action and comfortable grips make it a practical choice for repetitive stripping tasks in workshops and on-site installations.
