how thick is 24awg wire?
need to know as looking at US made stripper to strip of a load of landy wiring looms ive got.
its all this thinner stuff that they use these days.
also got deal going with local banger racers to strip wiring out of cars they get and re-wire bits they need.

cheers.

These should do the job

I have a pair brand new and some crimping pliers too if you're passing through Sheffield anytime.

If you're thinking of stripping them for scrap, it will be a lot of hard work, either make a mechanical stripper (I think Brightspark made one, look in the projects section, or use methylene chloride to strip them, much quicker.
