DXE-UT-8213 Coax Cable Stripping Tool

Coax Cable Stripping Tools provide a new and easy way to prepare your 50 ohm coax cable for the installation of solder-type PL-259 (UHF-male) and 2-piece solder-type "N" connectors.

These handy coax cable strippers work on foam or solid dielectric cables with a precision, 2-step operation. Strippers are made with premium, long-lasting, tool-steel cutter blades for clean coaxial cable preparation.

These cable stripping tools are intended to be used ONLY on PVC and PE jacketed coaxial cables.

Use our red DXE-UT-8213 Coax Cable Stripper for 0.405 in. OD cables. The following cables have been successfully stripped using the superior tool steel cutting blades of our DXE-UT-8213:

• DXE-213U
• DXE-8U
• DXE-11U
• Belden 8213 RG11/U
• Belden 8214 RG-8 foam
• Belden RG-213/U
• Belden 8237 RG-8/U
• Belden 8267**

**Belden 8267 and Belden 9913F7: Some cable labeled as Belden 9913F7 (and also Belden 8267) which has a very "squirmy" jacket and is easy to bend into all shapes without rebounding has proven very challenging to strip easily.

The jacket material seems different than the Belden (9913F7 and 8267) samples we had on hand from earlier lots that were used to test the DXE-UT-8213. Belden was contacted concerning this and a sample of the suspect 9913F7 was sent for testing.

Belden informed us this was their cable (not a suspected counterfeit) and this is a known tolerance in their manufacturing process of this type coaxial cable jacket. Therefore, the DXE-UT-8213 may, or may not, work properly with some Belden 9913F7 or Belden 8267.

Times Microwave LMR-400UF Ultra-Flex has a similar rubbery, thermoplastic jacket that which CANNOT be stripped by this type of cutter.

DXE-UT-8213 cutter blades are designed to cut through the more rigid materials encountered with high quality coaxial cables with an OD of 0.405 in with PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and PE (polyethylene) jackets.

These cable strippers are NOT intended for use with look-alike RG-8X cables with soft, rubbery, 'squirmy' outer jackets.
