One of the automatic wire strippers works well.  However, I've never had an issue stripping with my crimpers.  You insert wire, squeeze, release *slightly*, turn, and pull.

Thanks for the replies. Yes I am in the UK :)

I can't find anything in the UK by the same names that have been mentioned but these are what I've ordered:

Crimp Terminal, Female Push On Receptacle 6.3mm (PK 10)

Crimp Terminal Cover, Female, FASTON Clear (Pack of 10)

I'm pretty sure that will do the job.

I know that tool isn't great for stripping. I've actually got several sets including some automatic strippers but I always seem to misplace them and end up using the next best  ::)

I wish I had read your first post in greater depth....

If you only wanted 10 I could have sent them to you by post FOC of course..

And I would not have bothered with the insulation, I only use that type on 240v connections.
