The tool is used to remove the outer conductive layer of PEX insulation of power cables. The lathe's cutting edge automatically creates a chamfer on the edge of the conductive layer for a very smooth transition. The lathe runs on a total of six ball bearings, which gives a very smooth run and leaves a very nice result on the insulation surface, which greatly reduces any time for sandpapering. There is no need for silicone grease as it runs on ball bearings. The lathe blade can be fine-tuned by 1/10 mm for each "click" to taper the transition between PEX insulation and conductive layer.
