Questions & Answers
Can these be used to crimp the wires
The Milwaukee 7.75 in. Combination Electricians 6-in-1 Wire Stripper/Cutter Pliers does not include a crimping function.
Numbers are hard to read. Any suggestions?
Stronger glasses?
How are the numbers on the stripping blade of the 48-22-3083 stripper supposed to be interpreted? The numbers along the top edge run from 10 to 20 and along the bottom edge from 8 to 18. But there is an 8 above the 10 and a 22 above the 20 on the top edge
8 to 18 is the wire guage in solid wire. 10 to 20 is the gauge in stranded wire.
Hey there! The numbers on the stripping blade of the Milwaukee 48-22-3083 Automatic Wire Stripper and Cutter are meant to indicate the wire gauge sizes that the tool can strip. Specifically, these numbers correspond to the American Wire Gauge (AWG) sizes of the wires that the tool is designed to handle. Hope this helps out.
You have not answered the question. "Strips 8-20 Solid & 10-22 Stranded AWG wires." Assuming 8-20 means all the AWG sizes in betwee 8 and 20 including 8 and 20, we get 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20. That's seven sizes. But there are only six cutters.
Is this good for hvac?
I suppose that would depend. Looking through the product images, does it perform tasks that you (personally) need to do daily on the job site? Only you can really answer this question accurately. Just think about it.
Hey, there! The 7.75 in. Combination Electricians 6-in-1 Wire Stripper/Cutter Pliers are meant to be used to strip solid 8-18 AWG wire and stranded 10-20 AWG wire. This hand tool also can thread and cut #6 and #8 bolts to your preferred length. - Milwaukee Tool Social Team
What area is it in?
Difference between 9 in. and 7.75 in. pliers? Just the leverage?
The difference between them are of course length. 2nd half inch wide jaws vs quarter inch.3rd is one has crimping ability the other doesn't. They both Reem pipe the same.
For the 7-in-1 High-Leverage Combination Pliers they have built-in reamer allows you to ream ½” through 1” conduit, while the bolt cutter cuts #6 and #8 bolts. - Milwaukee Tool, Social Team
Is the cutter on these strippers able to cut through 12/2 mc without damage to the strippers?
No only wire not the mc jacket
Hell Yeah!
It is for cutting or stripping wire only not mc cable
Yes. Very impressive
No You'll need to cut through the metal clad with a saw or rotary cutter. These strippers will then work on the wires inside the metal clad.
Are the bolt cutting holes threaded, at least on one side? I'd prefer it on the tool, otherwise I put on a nut (if I can) to correct any thread issues after cutting.
Yes. One side is threaded. The cut side has no threads. As you unthread it it will fix the thread.
Yes , you will get thread issue after cutting ! The plier's maker and we - the user knew the right way to cut the bolt !!
