Kurve Multi-Tool Functions

The Klein Tools 1019 combines stripping, crimping and cutting in one pair of pliers. It handles 10 to 26 AWG solid and 12 to 28 AWG stranded wire. The reinforced head reduces flex while precision shear-type blades cut cleanly. Double-dipped Kurve comfort grips improve control during extended use.

Electricians and Low-Voltage Installers

Technicians who terminate insulated terminals, non-insulated terminals, B connectors or Scotchlok IDC connectors will find every function in one tool. It also shears 6-32 and 8-32 screws and loops or twists wire. Buyers who need automatic stripping, ratchet crimping or capacity beyond 10 AWG should look at a different tool.

10-26 AWG Solid Wire Range

The stripper section is calibrated for 10 to 26 AWG solid and 12 to 28 AWG stranded conductors. This range decides whether the tool matches the wire gauges used on the job. If the work involves larger or smaller gauges, the 1019 will not strip them correctly.
