A stripping apparatus for stripping coated electric wires b has a pair of clamping plates movable into and out of contact with each other and provided with cutting edges formed at a constant pitch in their opposing contactable edges. The corresponding cutting edges in both clamping plates cooperate with each other in defining, when the clamping plates are held in contact with each other, cutting gaps of different sizes. The clamping plates are adapted to clamp and sever, at their cutting edges, the end portion of the coating d on the coated electric wire at least partially. Means are provided for causing a relative movement between the coated electric wire and the clamping plates thereby to remove the severed end portion of the coating from the core wire of the coated electric wire. The clamping plates are adapted to be moved also in the direction substantially perpendicular to the coated electric wire to bring to the cutting position one of the cutting gaps having the size corresponding to the diameter of the coated electric wire to be stripped. This stripping apparatus can cope with the demand for stripping of coated electric wires of various different diameters. A pair of resilient plates are attached to the rear surfaces of the clamping plates and overlie the cutting gaps for ejecting the severed end portions of the coating therefrom upon movement of the clamping plates away from each other from their cutting position.
