5 in 1 Fiber Optic Stripper

A 5-in-1 fiber optic stripper refers to a tool used in fiber optic cable installation and maintenance. It is designed to strip and prepare fiber optic cables for splicing or termination. The “5-in-1” aspect implies that this particular tool combines multiple functions into a single device, making it versatile and convenient for various stripping tasks.

The specific functions or features of a 5-in-1 fiber optic stripper can vary slightly depending on the manufacturer and model. However, here are some common capabilities you might find in such a tool:

Jacket Stripping: The stripper can remove the outer jacket or sheath from the fiber optic cable without damaging the underlying components. The jacket typically consists of a protective layer made of materials like PVC or LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen).

Buffer Stripping: It can remove the buffer coating from the fiber, exposing the bare glass fibers inside. The buffer is a secondary layer that provides additional protection to the delicate fiber strands.

Coating Stripping: The stripper can remove the primary coating or cladding from the fiber, which surrounds the glass core. The coating is typically made of materials like acrylate or polyimide and helps protect the fiber from external influences.
