Ripley UtilityTool WS 5 950 Bushing 10310-950 - 0.911"-0.935" Cable OD
The Ripley Tools 10310-950 is a precision-sized interchangeable bushing engineered specifically for the UtilityTool WS 5 and WS 5A DA Cable End Strippers. This bushing is calibrated to accommodate cable outer diameters of 0.911in to 0.935in (23.14 to 23.75 mm), ensuring the stripper's guarded cutting blades track the cable surface accurately without nicking or damaging the underlying conductor.
Designed for use on primary URD (Underground Residential Distribution) cable, the WS 5 and WS 5A strippers that this bushing supports are built to remove XLPE, polyethylene, and EPR insulation, with the WS 5A rated for 600V-35kV cable applications. Because insulation and semi-conductive shield diameters vary widely across cable manufacturers and voltage classes, Ripley designed the WS 5 series around interchangeable bushings like this one so a single stripper body can be reconfigured in the field simply by swapping bushings to match the cable at hand.
This bushing is intended for electric utility linemen, cable splicers, and distribution technicians who need consistent, repeatable strip quality when preparing primary cable ends for splicing or termination.
