CST 500MC CommScope® MC2 Cable Coring, Stripping & Chamfering Tool
DESCRIPTION
Single precise operation, combination tool. Ripley's CST MC coring and stripping tools are specifically designed for CommScope (Trilogy) MC2 cables. With its double helix coring bit designed for fast and precise coring and stripping of polyethylene disc/air dielectric cable, it make's any installer's job that much easier. It also features manual or drill operation with a standard or ractcheting "T" handle, and a built in 3/8" drill adapter. It also features a heat treated, sheath cutting blade that produces a smooth beveled edge and can be replaced without the expense of replacing the entire coring bit
