Newport offers a variety of Fiber Optic Strippers that meet your requirements. The new F-STR-103D series fiber optic strippers allow to strip the 2 - 3 mm outer jacket, 900 um buffer, and the 250 um polymer coating for the standard 125 um fiber using only a single tool.
The F-STR-152 , F-STR-175 , F-STR-203 , and F-STR-305 Fiber Coating Strippers are for reliable stripping of virtually any size buffer from standard and specialty optical fibers. Removal of buffer is accomplished by scribing the buffer which does not allow for nicking, cutting or scraping the fiber beneath. An exclusive centering device positions fiber for precise scoring and removal of buffer coating. Cutting blades, made from razor quality steel score 5.3 in. (135 mm) length and 1.6 oz (45 g) weight.
The Model F-JS2 Wire Stripper can remove fiber jackets safely and efficiently to the diameters of 0.4 mm to 1 mm, leaving an undamaged exposed fiber. Both regular and loose tube fiber cables can be removed with this easy-to-use tool.
