Check the fit

Confirm the required gauge and strip length before comparing tool bodies. When ordering blades, match 45-090 rather than a visually similar Stripmaster in a finer range.

When to choose it

Choose the 45-090 if you need the larger conductor end of the Stripmaster range. It covers the stated 8–12 AWG range, whereas the 45-097 is the option here for smaller 16–26 AWG wire.
