Check the fit

Compare the 1019 with a fine-wire-only stripper if you have no need for the terminal positions. Use the connector maker's specified preparation and crimp format for the actual terminal.

When to choose it

Choose the 1019 if you need the wider stated stripping range and the documented terminal functions in one tool. The gauge for a stripping notch and the range for a terminal crimp are different, so check both before buying.
