Applications

Standard replacement blades for avionics maintenance shops and MRO facilities using the Ideal 45-170 or 45-180 Custom Stripmaster for aircraft wire harness preparation. The 10-14 AWG range covers the heavier gauge aircraft wire commonly used in power distribution circuits, bus connections, and high-current avionics wiring. Stocking replacement blades ensures continuous, consistent stripping quality without replacing the entire tool frame.

Ideal L-5210 Calibration

PJi operates an ISO/IEC 17025 Accredited Calibration Lab and provides NIST-traceable calibration for the Ideal L-5210 at the time of purchase — add calibration to your order at checkout. Our calibration documentation satisfies FAA Part 145 tool control requirements, ISO 9001 quality system records, and AS9100 calibration traceability requirements. For repair stations and quality-certified facilities that require documented traceability, PJi is the one-stop source: the tool and the calibration certificate in a single transaction. Calibration-only companies cannot sell you the tool. Major retailers cannot calibrate it. PJi does both.

Why Buy from Pilot John International

Pilot John International is an authorized Ideal Industries distributor with specialized expertise serving aviation maintenance, FAA Part 145 repair stations, and industrial MRO facilities. Unlike Amazon, Grainger, or Home Depot, which sell Ideal tools but offer zero calibration services, PJi's in-house ISO/IEC 17025 Accredited Calibration Lab calibrates your tool at purchase. We stock the full Ideal catalog, ship same-business-day on in-stock items, and our technical staff understands the demands of aviation and industrial electrical maintenance.
