Can it strip 4awg insulated copper wire?

I wouldn't. The size is probably slightly to small. I have spent a lot of time with 4 and 0 gauge and the best way is still just a razor blade. be careful but you will have the best cuts without any wire coming off.

Works perfect on cable TV wire. Not familiar with the wire you are asking about. Sorry I can't be of help.

This particular device is not truly large enough to strip 4awg wiring. It just might handle 10awg at best.

This stripper is designed for flat or round TV/UTP cable & not for general purpose wire stripping. I suppose you could use this tool to strip 4 gauge copper wire, but it's not intended for that use.Bobby...

This machine easily strips as small as 18 gauge. Smaller wires may be done depending on the nature of the wire and operator's skill level.

yes it will strip just about any wire . i never tried it with tiny wire though.

Should work, the copper wire is designed for use with transformers up to 600W+.

No sir honestly you have way too much copper to transfer that lower voltage through this cord you would be better off going to Home Depot or an electrical supply store and grabbing a heavy duty 110V cable from there

no, not really. This tool does an excellent job ...can take or leave the plastic side mounted terminal holder. You can, with care, some skill and a decent set of crimp pliers, achieve a similar quality of crimp. Soldering with a big soldering iron may also be an option, once the tangs are wrapped over your wire. No matter what the method, the use of an anti corrosive/sealant is an excellent idea if connector is outdoors, as backside of an MC4 might not seal out the elements completely.

This tool will NOT melt copper wire. You need a real torch for that.This tool is only hot enough to melt low temperature solder.Harriete Estel Berman

Not sure. 24 is pretty small. I ran my STRIPPED wires down the barrel and out the side before twisting tight and had no problem. The stupid question is of course, "Were the wires stripped of insulation?". Other than that, maybe your skinny wires are slipping to some part of the plug that is not part of the conductive system. If all else is good maybe try folding back the stripped part of the wire upon which the "screw" impinges back on itself to make it thicker.

This wire stripper works best on 10/2 12/2 and 14/2 copper wire anything with a really thick insulation on it will make it very difficult

I bought the mating (weatherized) MC4 connectors; not expensive, but the crimp tool is pricey. Of course you can cut off the extant MC4 connectors and splice to any appropriate wire pair. Your chosen 16AWG wire is sufficient for the approx 2.5A max current if you are not going too far, (perhaps 20 ft or less; remember voltage drop is a function of distance). If the cables have shielding ( I think they don't), be certain to prevent a short to the shield where you splice. You can look under the terminal cover to see if they are shielded; I did, but can't remember for sure.

Are you referring to the insulation coating? If so, then no. However, you might have to strip the ends to make contact with the device you're plugging in to.

Yes it works fantastic for stripping speaker wire. Probably one of the best strippers I've owned :)

Google or youtube search "wire strippers sparky direct". There is a pretty good video showing how to use it, including the funny little red plastic guide.

It has a standard 110 plug you could strip and hardwire if you know what your doing

As I have been a union certified electrician for nearly twenty years, I highly advise you to cut the quick connect off and throw it away. Then strip the wires and splice them correctly using outdoor silicon filled wirenuts available at any hardware store. Mine have never failed. The failing point is usually the quick connects. Also, use outdoor, direct burial rated 14/2 copper wire. This wire is rated to be just under the groundcover or soil so it makes it very easy to use.

I've gone pretty thin and it strips without tearing the wire. I think at 28 AWG you'd just have to be a little careful and not mash down to clamp it.

Yes, this does work for trimming speaker wire, but there are many better options. A regular wire stripper (looks like a pliers with different gauge holes cut in it) works well for speaker wire.
