Big Blue Adjustable Ringer stripping tool allows for jacket and conductor stripping for many types of round cable， including multi-conductor fiber， coaxial， twisted pair and basic insulated conductors. This is a physically larger prep tool than the other Ringer tools. This version also works well for specialty cable preparation where traditional fixed blade stripping tools just don't work as needed for the application. The 45-164 includes three larger 1/2 in. long separate active cutting blades which are all able to be adjusted to the proper cutting depth via a Phillips screw setting for each blade. Blades can be individually set to score the jacket so the inner conductors or shielding do not get damaged. The tool can be used for jacket stripping or scoring， including mid-span access stripping， 2-step conductor preparation by having the 0.560 in. spaced side blades cut to different depths one for jacket removal， the other for dielectric removal/conductor exposure. The front blade can be used to slit a jacket end or complete a mid-span cut.
