Miller MB04 'Twister' Cable Slitter

Ripley Tools has introduced the Miller brand MB04 ‘Twister’ Flat Drop Cable Slitter. Engineered for quick one-handed operation, its blades easily cut through both sides of the cable jacket on cable mid-spans and ends safely exposing the fibre within without damage.

Its articulating hinge opens and closes around the cable without disassembling the tool or the need for a latch. The ergonomic tool promotes safe operation with shielded blades that prevent cuts and lacerations.

It is compatible with a wide range of flat cable brands including Commscope, Corning, Draka/Comteq, OFS, Prysmian, Superior Essex and more.

The tool accommodates cable widths ranging from 0.305 to 0.350″ (7.7 to 8.9 mm), cable heights ranging from 0.155 to 0.185″ (3.9 to 4.7 mm) and jacket thicknesses from 0.03 to 0.04″ (0.76 to 1.0 mm).

Every MB04 includes two reversible spare blades and an installation tool, in addition to the two blades already installed.
