Ideal Industries 45-110 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire gauges will the Ideal 45-110 wire stripper handle?
The 45-110 strips 8 to 16 AWG solid and 10 to 18 AWG stranded. That covers the usual branch circuit range (12 and 14 AWG solid for receptacles and switches, 10 and 8 AWG for ranges, dryers and feeders). If your work is mostly control or low voltage wire below 18 AWG, this is the wrong tool and you want a stripper that runs into the 20s.
2) Will the Ideal 45-110 strip 18 AWG solid thermostat wire?
No. On solid conductors the 45-110 stops at 16 AWG; its 18 AWG hole is cut for stranded wire. Running 18 AWG solid through a stranded hole tends to nick or scar the conductor. For thermostat and low voltage solid wire, pick a stripper rated for solid down to 18 or 20 AWG.
3) What is the exact part number to order the Ideal heavy duty forged wire stripper?
Order Ideal Industries 45-110. That is the manufacturer part number for the 8-3/4 inch forged heavy duty stripper with the Smart-Grip handle, and it is the single configuration, so there are no finish or size options to specify.
4) Can I use the Ideal 45-110 to strip THHN stranded building wire in a panel?
Yes, within 10 to 18 AWG on stranded. Panelboard and device wiring is one of the uses the 45-110 is built for, and the forged body plus 8-3/4 inch handle length gives you the bite needed on 10 AWG stranded without crushing the conductor bundle. Stranded feeders heavier than 10 AWG are outside its range.
5) Is the Ideal 45-110 built for daily production use or occasional maintenance?
Forged steel body, so it is built for repeated daily use rather than occasional service work. The Smart-Grip textured handle is the other half of that: it is aimed at electricians doing repetitive stripping all shift, where plain bare handles cause hand fatigue.
6) Should I standardize my electricians on the 45-110 or buy a combination stripper/crimper?
The 45-110 is a dedicated stripper, forged, covering 8-16 AWG solid and 10-18 AWG stranded. If your crews mostly prepare conductors for terminals and devices, one tool per bag is cleaner and the stripping holes stay true longer than on a multi-function tool. If they are also terminating insulated or non-insulated lugs all day, you still need a separate crimper, so a combination tool can cut one item out of the kit at the cost of a less specialized strip.
