Klein Tools Introduces Bent-Nose NM Romex® Strippers
LINCOLNSHIRE, ILL - February 2008 - Klein Tools recently added three new Bent-Nose NM Romex® Strippers (Cat. Nos. K90-10/2, K90-12/2, and K90-14/2) with Klein-Kurve® handles to its existing line of strippers and cutters. The Bent-Nose NM Romex® cable stripper, with its patented 90-degree angled nose design, allows for easy work in confined spaces. Its unique design eliminates the need to angle the tool, wire, or hand, enabling quick and precise removal of the outer jacket of non-metallic (NM) cable. Klein Tools' new angled nose strippers strip, cut and loop 10, 12 or 14 AWG solid wire, and cleanly shear 6-32 and 8-32 screws. The K90-12/2 and K90-14/2 also strip 18 AWG stranded wire. A serrated nose bends, shapes and pulls wire. The Bent-Nose NM cable stripper features U.S.-made tool steel, black oxide finish, precision ground stripping holes, shear type cutting blades, and Klein's exclusive Comfort Grip curved handles. "Klein's new 90-degree Bent-Nose NM cable stripper adds more versatility to the line of Klein Kurve strippers and allows users to easily work in confined spaces," said Abby Ceppos, associate director, marketing, Klein Tools. 2007 marked Klein Tools' 150th anniversary. In 1857, Klein Tools' founder and blacksmith Mathias Klein forged the first-known U.S.-made pliers in Chicago. Since then, Klein Tools has grown to be the leading manufacturer of a variety of hand tools and occupational protective equipment.
