Swanstrom SV5E Midsize V-Notch Wire Stripper/Shear with Long Ergonomic Handle
The Swanstrom SV5E Wire Stripper/Shear is a premium dual-purpose tool designed for jewelers, electronics professionals, wire workers, and fabrication specialists who need precise wire stripping, clean cutting performance, and superior ergonomic comfort. Featuring a midsize V-notch stripping design, integrated shear cutting capability, and long ergonomic Soft-Touch™ handles, the SV5E is ideal for accurately stripping insulation and cutting wire with control and consistency.
The precision V-notch stripping jaws allow for controlled insulation removal without damaging the conductor beneath, making the SV5E especially useful for delicate electrical work, jewelry electronics, lighting projects, and fine wire applications. The integrated shear cutting section provides clean, efficient cuts for wire preparation and fabrication tasks.
Unlike generic wire strippers, the V-notch design offers improved precision and control, helping reduce nicking or weakening of wire during stripping. This makes the SV5E particularly valuable for detailed work where wire integrity matters.
Designed for long hours of repetitive use, the extra-long ergonomic Soft-Touch™ handles provide increased leverage and distribute pressure evenly across the hand to reduce fatigue. The padded, textured grips maximize comfort and control during extended bench sessions or production work.
Forged from premium high-chromium, high-carbon alloy steel and hardened using Swanstrom’s proprietary heat-treating process, the SV5E delivers exceptional durability, precise jaw alignment, and long-lasting professional performance. The anti-glare finish improves visibility and reduces eye strain under bright work lighting.
