SCT-QR

STRIPPING/CORING TOOLS for QR CABLES

PRINT THIS
PAGE

SCT-QR stripping/coring tools strip back and bevel the outer conductor, core the dielectric, and strip back the outer jacket on CommScope® Quantum Reach® (QR) cables.

THE SCT-QR ADVANTAGE

  • Perform three functions at once
  • Feature non-clogging stops
  • Core out-of-round cable
  • Prevent O-ring damage
  • Operate manually or with a drill
  • Include attached jacket-stripping tool

APPLICATIONS

SCT-QR stripping/coring tools work on 0.320" through 1.125" CommScope® Quantum Reach® (QR) cables.

Note that, because the jacket must be stripped after coring, SCT tools for QR applications include a special, integrated jacket stripper made especially for this purpose.

Please see SCT Stripping/Coring Tools for non-QR cables for other SCT applications.


SPECIAL FEATURES

Three Functions in One Operation
SCT-QR tools speed connectorization because they strip back and bevel the outer conductor and core the dielectric in one smooth operation.

Non-clogging Stops
There is a non-clogging internal stop on every SCT-QR tool that is factory-set to the required dimension for the cable.

Patented Stripping/Coring Blades
The bevel on the coring edge of the blade self-aligns on the center conductor, which enables an SCT-QR tool to core cable even when it is out-of-round. Made of tool steel that is heat treated to full hardness, the blade bevels the outer conductor, thereby eliminating O-ring damage and minimizing water migration.

Manual or Drill Operation
SCT tools can be ordered with a standard ergonomic handle or a Cable Prep brand RTH ratchet T-handle. Either handle can be removed for operation with a 3/8-inch variable speed drill.

Attached Jacket Stripping Tool
Because the jacket on QR cable must be stripped after the coring operation, each SCT-QR stripping/coring tool (labeled SCT-QR-A) comes with a special jacket stripping tool (labeled SCT-QR-B). The two pieces are threaded, so they can be assembled and stored as one unit, which protects the insides of the parts from damage. The jacket stripper is designed with a patented mandrel pin that supports the soft aluminum outer conductor and keeps it from being damaged during the jacket stripping operation.


WARRANTY

All Cable Prep brand tools are warranted to be free from defects in workmanship and material. Metal SCT-QR bodies have a limited lifetime warranty. SCT-QR stripping/coring blades have a one-year warranty.
