Hello,

I am in the market of looking for a new vendor for Strippers/Crimpers. Any Ideas?

Maybe Fenwal.

Fenwal. I think the Tube Stripper is Product # 4R4415 and the Hand Sealer is Product # 4R4417, unless they have changed their catalogue numbers.

I think you are looking for an all-in-one stripper/crimper combo...but I thought that I would throw this out. Sarstedt makes an electronic tubing stripper that is WONDERFUL!!!!!!!! We process over 130,000 units per year, and each unit is stripped in our Component Lab. The cost of the device is $1800, but my techs would want it if it were $18,000. If you are high-volume, then you can justify the cost by examining the risk of an associate getting a repetative motion injury from manual stripping (we actually had a tech who developed tennis elbow and had to have surgery -- she has ended up with permanent nerve damage).

Take a look at the MediCore tube stripper at www.medicore.com

Terumo also makes one that is simple, cost effective and the hour-glass shaped rollers help to keep the tubing ON the roller with much less effort (less carpal tunnel issues). Not sure of the pricing, but I think it's pretty close to the Fenwal strippers - and a MUCH better product!

I got a free offer from: Melco. I tried and liked it foc and ordered some more. 89.99$ ea. Henry David <henry@melcowire.com> contacted me initially. It was a good promotion I think.

You can try the JMS product. Some users do not like the round clips compared to the Fenwal rectangular clip.

We use Fenwal strippers and we process over 375,000 units a year... Sarstedt products are never going to be on my list for purchases ever again.
