Siemens 6GK1905-6AA00 Profibus FastConnect Stripping Tool
Product Dimensions:
The Siemens 6GK1905-6AA00 is the official PROFIBUS FastConnect (FC) Stripping Tool. It is a specialized industrial hand tool used to prepare standard Siemens FastConnect bus cables for terminal and connector wiring in field assemblies.
Product Detailed Description
The FastConnect stripping tool allows installers to strip the outer sheath and woven copper shield of PROFIBUS FC cables in a single operation. Equipped with a preset double-blade cassette, it strips the cable to the exact dimensions required for Siemens FastConnect RS-485 bus connectors (sub-D connectors, M12 fieldbus connectors, or terminal blocks). The ergonomic ring design allows technicians to rotate the tool smoothly around the cable for fast, precise, and repeatable preparation without damaging internal signal conductors.

Product Advantages
- Time Savings: Strips both the outer sheath and braided shield in a single, quick rotary motion, cutting connection setup times significantly compared to conventional wire strippers.
- High Precision: Pre-set blade lengths prevent accidental cutting or nicking of the inner core insulation or copper conductors.
- Error-Free Connectors: Produces exact stripping dimensions required for insulation-displacement technique (IDC) FastConnect plugs, eliminating connection measurement errors.
- Ergonomic Design: Features a finger-ring hole and compact body for easy one-handed operation in tight control cabinets or field junction boxes.
- Replaceable Blade Cassettes: When the cutting edges wear down, the blade unit snaps out easily for quick field replacement without discarding the tool body.
Important Considerations (Precautions)
- Cable Compatibility: Designed specifically for standard FastConnect rigid/semi-rigid bus cables. It is not suitable for ultra-flexible trailing cables, non-FastConnect standard round cables, or armoring cables without adjusting or changing blade types.
- Blade Wear: Monitor blade performance over time. Dull blades tear the shield braiding rather than slicing it cleanly, which can lead to poor EMC shielding or grounding issues at the connector.
- Rotational Direction: Always follow the directional indicator on the tool housing. Rotate the tool a set number of turns (typically 2 to 4 full rotations) under light finger pressure; over-rotating can score internal wires.
- Regular Cleaning: Periodically clean cut cable debris and sheath fragments from the inside of the blade housing to prevent jam-ups.
Product Applications
- Control Cabinet Assembly: Fast field termination of PROFIBUS cables into PLC racks, I/O drops (ET 200S/SP/MP), and frequency drives.
- Industrial Network Installation: On-site deployment of fieldbus networks in automotive, packaging, food & beverage, and chemical process facilities.
- Maintenance & Repair: Essential tool carried by field engineers and automation technicians for fast cable re-termination during routine maintenance or troubleshooting
