Milwaukee 48-22-6109 Wire Stripper/Cutter for Solid & Stranded Wire
The Milwaukee 48-22-6109 Wire Stripper/Cutter is a one-handed, spring-lock hand tool engineered to strip and cut solid wire from 18-10 AWG and stranded wire from 20-12 AWG. Built for electricians, maintenance technicians, and industrial installers who need fast, reliable single-hand operation on the jobsite, this Milwaukee stripper/cutter pairs a spring-lock mechanism with precisely sized strip ports for consistent, repeatable results on both solid and stranded conductors. Whether you're terminating devices in a panel, prepping wire for a splice, or working inside a tight junction box, the 48-22-6109 keeps one hand free to hold the conductor or component in place while the tool handles the stripping and cutting.
Key Features
- One-Handed Spring-Lock Operation: the spring-lock design lets you strip and cut wire using a single hand, leaving your other hand free to position conductors, devices, or components.
- Solid Wire Range: dedicated strip ports are precisely sized for solid wire from 18 AWG to 10 AWG, covering the most common branch-circuit conductor sizes.
- Stranded Wire Range: additional strip ports accommodate stranded wire from 20 AWG to 12 AWG for control, fixture, and device wiring.
- Integrated Cutting & Stripping: combines wire cutting and stripping functions in a single tool, reducing the need to switch tools mid-task during rough-in and terminations.
- Precision Gauge Sizing: calibrated strip ports help produce clean, consistent strips on both solid and stranded conductors, minimizing nicked strands and reducing rework.
- Compact, Jobsite-Ready Profile: the one-handed design fits into crowded panels, junction boxes, and enclosures where bulkier strippers won't fit.
- Dual-Gauge Versatility: a single tool covers both solid and stranded conductors, cutting down on the number of tools you need to carry.

Milwaukee 48-22-6109 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What wire gauges does the Milwaukee 48-22-6109 stripper handle?
The 48-22-6109 strips solid wire from 18 to 10 AWG and stranded wire from 20 to 12 AWG. That covers typical 12 and 14 AWG branch circuit conductors as well as lighter control and fixture wiring. If you regularly strip stranded 10 AWG or anything larger than 10 solid, this tool is outside its range and you need a larger stripper.
2) Can you strip wire one-handed with this Milwaukee stripper?
Yes, that is the point of it. The spring-lock mechanism lets you strip and cut with one hand, so your other hand stays on the conductor or the device. That matters in a crowded panel or junction box where you are holding a receptacle in place while you prep the leads.
3) Do I still need a separate pair of cutters with the 48-22-6109?
Not for the wire sizes it covers. Cutting and stripping are combined in the one tool, so you can cut the conductor to length and strip it without swapping tools during rough-in or terminations. For bolts, screws, or cable larger than 10 AWG solid you will still want dedicated cutters.
4) Does this stripper have separate ports for solid and stranded wire?
It does. There are strip ports sized for solid conductors 18 to 10 AWG and additional ports for stranded 20 to 12 AWG. Using the port that matches the conductor type is what keeps you from nicking strands, since a stranded conductor of the same gauge is physically larger than a solid one.
5) Is the Milwaukee 48-22-6109 suitable for low-voltage and control wiring?
Yes, within its gauge range. The stranded ports go down to 20 AWG, which covers most control, thermostat, and fixture wiring an electrician or maintenance tech runs into. Anything finer than 20 AWG, such as data or signal cable, needs a stripper sized for those gauges.
6) What is the correct part number to order this Milwaukee wire stripper?
Order Milwaukee 48-22-6109. That is the manufacturer part number for the one-handed spring-lock stripper/cutter rated for 18-10 AWG solid and 20-12 AWG stranded wire.
