Product Description
Milwaukee 8-20 AWG Dipped Grip Wire Stripper and Cutter (USA)
Model Number: MT702
The Milwaukee MT702 is an 8-20 AWG Dipped Grip Wire Stripper and Cutter, made in the USA with USA-sourced materials and built to deliver clean strips and easier cuts for the professional user. The tool strips 8-18 AWG solid wire and 10-20 AWG stranded wire through precision-ground stripping holes engineered to remove insulation cleanly without nicking or damaging the conductor and without leaving messy insulation behind, which is exactly what a clean, reliable termination depends on. High-contrast markings make it easy to find the right stripping hole at a glance, and the dipped grip handles provide a comfortable, secure hold through a full day of wiring. For electricians and other trades who strip and cut wire all day, the USA-made construction and precision-ground holes make this a professional-grade daily driver.
On the cutting side, the V-shaped cutting blades are the key detail: where standard flat blades can let a cable wiggle out as you cut, the V shape securely traps the wire for easier, more controlled cuts through copper wire and larger materials like Non-Metallic (NM) sheathed cable. The durable cut edge is designed to minimize damage over the tool's lifespan, so it keeps cutting cleanly rather than deforming with use. The tool adds real versatility beyond stripping and cutting: integrated 6-32 and 8-32 bolt shears cleanly cut machine screws to length while restoring the threads, and wire looping holes let you form clean terminal loops for screw terminations.
The MT702 is built for how the tool is actually used and carried. A spring-loaded, spring-assisted design opens the tool easily for one-handed use and reduces hand fatigue over repeated strips and cuts, and an easy-access swing lock holds the tool closed for convenient, secure storage in a pouch or backpack. The tool is tether-ready for working at height. Like all Milwaukee wire strippers, it is backed by a complete Lifetime Guarantee, and its made-in-the-USA construction with USA-sourced materials sets it apart for buyers who prioritize domestic manufacturing.
