Maybe "grind" the involution off.'.  Squeeze wire between two paces of emery
paper and pull it out?

Else, maybe solder it without stripping.  Place in a cup like a DB9 solder
pin and put solder in cup also.  See if that will make electrical
connection.  Crimp cup for mechanical connection.

Maybe....
