Gardner Bender GTPS-100 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size cable will the Gardner Bender GTPS-100 strip?
The GTPS-100 handles round UTP and STP data cable up to .24 inch (6.2 mm) outside diameter. That covers typical Cat5e and Cat6 patch and horizontal cable jackets in that OD range. If the cable you are running measures larger than .24 inch across the jacket, this is not the tool for it.
2) Will the GTPS-100 work on shielded cable, or just unshielded?
Both. The GTPS-100 is rated for UTP (unshielded twisted pair) and STP (shielded twisted pair) round cable, so a shielded run with a foil or braid layer under the jacket is within what it is built to strip, as long as the overall diameter stays at or under .24 inch.
3) Can I use this stripper on coax or flat telephone cable?
No. The GTPS-100 is a round-cable tool made for UTP and STP data cable up to .24 inch diameter. Flat satin phone cord has no round jacket for it to score, and coax needs a tool that cuts the jacket, braid and dielectric to set lengths. For coax you want a dedicated coax stripper instead.
4) What part number do I order for the Gardner Bender round data cable stripper?
Order Gardner Bender GTPS-100. That is the manufacturer part number for the UTP/STP round cable stripper, and it ships as a single tool with no size or finish options to specify.
5) Does the GTPS-100 cut the conductors too, or only the jacket?
It is a jacket stripper. The GTPS-100 is built to ring and remove the outer jacket on round UTP and STP cable up to .24 inch diameter so you can fan out the pairs. You will still need a flush cutter or the blade on your crimper to trim the pairs to length before seating a plug.
6) Is the Gardner Bender GTPS-100 small enough to keep in a pouch?
Yes. Packaged it runs 5.5 x 3.75 x 0.63 inches and weighs 0.8 ounces, so the tool itself drops into a tool pouch or a low-voltage tech's kit without taking up real space. It is a hand tool, not a bench unit.
