About CABLE PREP

CABLE PREP is a brand of hand tools for cable preparation and electrical connector termination, distributed globally by 3G Electric. The line includes coaxial cable strippers, replacement blades, and preset torque wrenches. These tools are used in data, telecommunications, and electrical maintenance work where consistent stripping and tightening are required. The product range covers specific cable types and torque values, allowing technicians to select tools matched to their task. 3G Electric supplies these tools with datasheets and logistics support for international orders.

CABLE PREP coaxial cable strippers are designed for RG-59 and RG-6 cables, common in video and data installations. The CPT-6590-1S model is a steel stripper with a 1/4 inch stripping capacity and an overall length of 4-1/2 inches. It does not have a built-in stop, which allows for adjustable stripping depth. Replacement blades, such as the RBC-6590, are available to maintain cutting performance. These blades are compatible with CABLE PREP tools and are identified by part numbers RBC-6590 and CPT-6590-1S.

The torque wrench family includes preset micrometer wrenches with a 7/16 inch drive size. These wrenches are factory-set to specific torque values: 20, 25, 30, and 40 inch-pounds. Each wrench has an overall length of 6-1/2 inches. They are used for tightening electrical connectors to precise torque specifications, which helps prevent over- or under-tightening that can lead to connection failures. The preset design eliminates the need for adjustment during use, streamlining repetitive tasks.

3G Electric carries multiple SKUs from CABLE PREP, including the 6JAX5 stripper, 6JAX6 replacement blade, and the 21VF61, 21VF62, 21VF63, and 21VF64 torque wrenches. Each product is listed with manufacturer part numbers and key specifications. 3G Electric provides global shipping and support for procurement specialists, plant engineers, and maintenance managers. The catalog includes datasheets and logistics assistance to facilitate ordering. For specific application requirements, 3G Electric can help identify the appropriate CABLE PREP tool based on cable type, torque value, or replacement needs.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about CABLE PREP from 3G Electric.

What is the difference between the CABLE PREP CPT-6590-1S and the RBC-6590?

The CPT-6590-1S is a complete coaxial cable stripper for RG-59 and RG-6 cables, with a 4-1/2 inch overall length and 1/4 inch stripping capacity. The RBC-6590 is a replacement blade designed for that stripper and other compatible CABLE PREP tools. The blade restores cutting performance when the original edge dulls. Both are available from 3G Electric.

What torque values are available for CABLE PREP preset torque wrenches?

CABLE PREP preset torque wrenches are available in 20, 25, 30, and 40 inch-pound settings. All have a 7/16 inch drive size and 6-1/2 inch overall length. The wrenches are factory-set to the specified torque and are not adjustable. They are used for tightening electrical connectors to consistent values.

Can CABLE PREP coaxial strippers be used on cables other than RG-59 and RG-6?

The CPT-6590-1S is specifically designed for RG-59 and RG-6 coaxial cables. Using it on other cable types may not produce correct strip dimensions. For other cable types, consult the manufacturer's specifications or contact 3G Electric for assistance in selecting a suitable tool.

What is the purpose of a preset torque wrench for electrical connectors?

Preset torque wrenches apply a specific, repeatable torque to connectors, preventing over-tightening that can damage threads or under-tightening that can cause loose connections. CABLE PREP models are set to values like 20, 25, 30, or 40 inch-pounds, common for many RF and electrical connectors. They are used in installation, maintenance, and repair work.
