This is the Klein K11095 Katapult Wire Stripper — a one-handed self-adjusting stripper that auto-sizes its grip to the wire without a dial or adjustment. Squeeze the handle and the jaws clamp, strip, and eject in a single motion. The head handles 8-16 AWG solid and 10-18 AWG stranded, which covers most residential and commercial service work.
It’s the tool that matters when the other hand is on a ladder, holding a conduit, or supporting a fixture — one-handed stripping is the difference between stopping to reposition and just moving on. The integrated cutter and bolt-shearing holes (6-32 and 8-32) mean the same tool handles the hardware cuts most installs need without a second tool.
Klein Tools has been making hand tools for electricians and tradespeople since 1857, headquartered in Lincolnshire, Illinois. The Journeyman and Standard pliers lines — along with many of Klein’s cushion-grip screwdrivers — are forged and finished in the United States, and clearly marked as such, so you know exactly what you’re buying.
