Irwin 8 In. Multi Tool Stripper Cutter Crimper Pliers vise grip

IRWIN VISE-GRIP 8-Inch Multi-Tool Wire Stripper / Cutter / Crimper Pliers, 10–22 AWG solid & stranded, bolt cutter, induction-hardened edges, ProTouch™ grips, ANSI compliant

Condition: New. Retail-fresh with no prior use. Packaging may show minor shelf wear.

This 8-inch IRWIN VISE-GRIP Multi-Tool Wire Stripper consolidates the essentials—strip, cut, crimp, bolt-cut, and pliers-nose manipulation—into one durable hand tool. Its induction-hardened cutting edges stay sharp longer, while the calibrated stripping stations cover 10–22 AWG for both solid and stranded conductors. A pliers-style nose shapes clean loops and pulls wire through tight spots; the integrated crimper handles insulated and non-insulated terminals. A built-in bolt cutter trims common machine screws to length and leaves a usable lead thread. ProTouch™ over-molded grips reduce fatigue through long shifts, and the steel frame meets or exceeds ANSI standards for shop and field reliability.
