Review: Stanley FATMAX Automatic Wire Stripper — Tough, Precise & Easy to Use - I recently added the Stanley FATMAX Automatic Wire Stripper (FMHT0-96230) to my toolbox, and it’s quickly become one of my go-to hand tools for electrical work. It’s a solid choice for both DIYers and professionals who need reliable wire preparation without fuss. 🔧 Build & Design From first touch, the build quality feels robust — typical of the Stanley FATMAX line. The tool is designed to handle a wide range of wire sizes, automatically adjusting jaws to strip wires from around 10–22 AWG (0.2–6 mm) without damaging the core. ⚡ Performance What makes this tool stand out is how effortlessly it strips insulation: place the wire in the jaws, squeeze, and the stripper does the rest. The adjustable wire stop lets you set consistent strip lengths, which is great when doing repetitive jobs or prepping lots of cable. The spring-loaded handles feel comfortable for extended use, and the ergonomic grip helps reduce fatigue — especially helpful when working on bigger jobs or longer lengths of cable. 🛠️ Versatility This wire stripper does more than just strip: it also offers cutting and crimping capabilities for insulated and non-insulated terminals. That means it often replaces multiple tools in your kit, saving space and time. 📈 Pros & Cons Pros: • Automatic adjustment for a variety of wire gauges • Easy and consistent stripping with adjustable stop • Comfortable spring handles for repetitive use • Adds cutting and crimping in one tool Cons: • A bit heavier than simpler manual strippers • Not ideal for very thick industrial cable beyond its spec 📊 Overall The Stanley FATMAX Automatic Wire Stripper is a well-built, dependable tool that performs exactly as expected. Whether you’re doing basic home electrics or more involved wiring tasks, it speeds up prep work and reduces mistakes. It’s a great value pick for anyone serious about electrical or DIY work. ⭐ Recommended for: electricians, tradespeople, DIY enthusiasts

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this be used for reattaching cat5/6 cables to the head?**
A: Not sure what you mean by 'the head', however I think the answer is no in respect to using this tool with anything to do with Cat5e/6 cabling. This tool is mainly for stripping 1.5mm and 2.5mm Twin and Earth electrical cabling (Lighting and Electrical socket circuits). It can be used for other types of electrical cable, but not for Coax or Cat5e/6 type cables. Nor will it work with armoured cabling.

On the assumption you want to attach an RJ45 plug to a Cat5e cable, you would need a Cat5e/6 Crimping tool and at least one RJ45 plug. Bear in mind you cannot re-attach a plug, so once cut off it's wasted. The reason is because you can only crimp an RJ45 plug onto a cable once. So similarly, if you make a mistake in wiring with a new one (and you crimp) it's wasted, and you need another new one. Good job you can pick them up for as little as 15p.

**Q: where can I get full instructions as I don't understand the adjusting screws, thanks.**
A: the adjusting screw is to adjust the bite on the wire, if you have a thick wire you turn the screw to minus and for thin wire just turn the screw to plus , so that it can bite . these are a great bit of kit.

**Q: Does it cut 10 awg? Also does it have wire cutter edge? Thanks!**
A: Yes, there is a wire cutter (blade to anvil) which will cope with up to 2.5mm T&E cable including insulation, but that's about the limit in size. It will strip single wires up to about 10mm2.

**Q: Does it mark insulation it grips or is it gentle enough not to do it?**
A: Yes it does, but they are not that obvious or bad to me and I'm sure will fade over time. A few lines from the grips either side of the cable. I would send you a picture, but this reply interface doesn't allow without me giving Amazon access to my pictures etc.

*by C***4 on 28 January 2026*

Absolutely brilliant tool, wish I'd bought this years ago. So efficient and simple to use.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product
*by K***N on 21 December 2025*

These work really well as a wire stripper - much easier to use than the manual type. The wire cutter is fine too, although you do have to be a bit careful to position the wire centrally across the blade otherwise it can be a struggle to cut.
