Strip Zit hose skiving tools are globally recognized, patented tools for quickly and cleanly skiving many types of hydraulic hose. Developed with ease of operator use in mind, they’re tough and inexpensive hand tools for your growing hydraulic service business. We offer various standard hose diameter mandrels and variable skive length capabilities.
Spencer Manufacturing’s external Strip Zit tool is a compact, easy-to-use hose skiver with a patented design that makes a clean hose skive consistent. You can adjust the depth of the skive by loosening the adjustment post-set screws and tool post-set screws to allow the skive blade to meet the hose at an optimal attack angle. You can also attach a manual crank handle, hex adapter, or electric motor chuck to the base for versatile operation in any service environment.
Currently, we don’t sell Strip Zits online, so look over the dimensional information and call or email us for quotes on your price and delivery availability. All Strip Zit tools are stocked as components and built to order. Typical lead times are 5-7 working days from the time of order. External Strip Zit tools come in various sizes, accommodating many hose widths and skive lengths.
Spencer Manufacturing stands by every tool we sell by offering all the necessary accessories and replacement parts to keep your Strip Zit tool collection a profitable part of your business. Whether it’s electric skive motors, stop collars or replacement blades, we’re your single source for all things “Strip Zit.”
Strip Zit manual crank handles provide the best way to skive hose for most applications. They thread onto the base of the external and internal Strip Zit tools and have a locknut on the threaded end to hold the tool securely.

The Strip Zit motors come in three varieties. They are all 120V AC electric motors and are an excellent choice for production hose shops where speed is necessary.

SZ118-05 Motor, 1/2hp, 90rpm

The Power adapter fits onto the Electric Skive Motor’s output shaft. The Hex Adapter is a popular choice when using an electric drill to skive hose. You can also use a ratchet or any other hand tool that accepts sockets. Both Adapters thread into the base of the Strip Zit tool and are zinc-plated.
