    Strip meister original drill powered with gripping wheel

    What's the longest wire anyone has run in a strip meister original with gripper drill powered? . If you had 6 gauge wire that was 500ft could you run it through like that or would you have to cut it down some?. I did some aluminum 4/0 it went through really good I got 5lbs pretty fast opposed to using a knife . It sucks I can't stick xhhw in it the hole isn't big enough so I'll have to break it down before I can strip it with the stripper.

    Stick to 4-5 feet lengths if working my yourself. You can do much longer with someone on the other side to guide the wire as it passes through. Without that it becomes complicated often and quickly.

    Ah thanks. It already paid for itself I got 67lbs bare with it. I got a big box of ec wire I have to strip that will make it lots easier for me that's for sure. Most of them are 4/0 each one is 5ft and I get alb of ec wire so I can just count the pieces so I'll know how many lbs of ec wire I'll get.
