You can use this plier-type tool to slit the web between the strand and the cable core on figure 8 cable.

• All you have to do is hold the block of the slitter parallel to the strand and draw it along the cable and the strand.
• The self-guiding tool makes sure the blade pierces the web and not the sheath or strand jacket.
• The cutting blade is held with a square washer to prevent bending.
• Also referred to as a 305B tool.
