Wire Wrapping Tool

A wire wrapping tool is a specialized hand tool used to create secure electrical connections by tightly wrapping thin insulated wire around square or rectangular metal posts. The tool strips the wire insulation and winds the wire under tension around terminal pins, creating a gas-tight connection through cold welding of the metals. Wire wrapping is commonly used in prototyping, telecommunications equipment, and situations where solderless connections are preferred for their reliability and ease of modification.
