Abstract
A wire stripper apparatus for stripping insulation from a coaxial type electric cable having a central conductor and a drain wire, which may be randomly located about the cable axis, includes piercing members to pierce through the cable insulation and pushing surfaces for pushing the drain wire out of the way of the piercing means so that during piercing and stripping of the cable insulation the drain wire is not damaged. The piercing members may be needle-like members having curved tips that pierce the cable insulation, on the one hand, and nudge, i.e. the pushing function, the drain wire out of the path of the penetrating needle-like members, on the other hand. The method is for stripping insulation of cable, especially of the aforesaid type, including such piercing and pushing steps.
