Guest G.J.M Posted May 16, 2005 Share Posted May 16, 2005 FPT - 200 GOLD almost strips itself doesnt it?? 53396[/snapback] pretty much but this is a cool gadget to have.It's like a tube that opens and closes over the cable.Then you just turn it and pull off insulation. Alot quicker than a pen knife Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/5746-great-tool/page/6/#findComment-53510 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest G.J.M Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Dave, You are probably right.I don't use FP Gold but Ventcroft,which the tool is very handy for. If you have been instructed this way by Pirelli instructions you should be ok.

John Posted May 17, 2005 Share Posted May 17, 2005 Try the Smart Strip - little red plastic jobby with an adjustable blade from CPC or CEF etc about a tenner and well worth it. Excellent for FP cable. Fire Member Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/5746-great-tool/page/6/#findComment-53550 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've used CK drivers for a while, I like 'em. Quality's good and I've got a few in my tool box.
