The Hot Stripper is a tool designed to remove polymer coatings from within 40mm of the end of silica optical fibers, in preparation for fusion splicing.
The Hot Stripper is a tool designed to remove polymer coatings from within 40mm of the end of silica optical fibers, in preparation for fusion splicing. The standard configuration of this tool accepts the 12mm x 40mm fiber holders used with the Ericsson fusion splicer. Alternatively, the stripper may be ordered to accept large (30mm x 70mm) fiber holders available for the Ericsson fusion splicer. The standard blade assembly will strip coatings from 150um to 900um O.D. from fibers with 125um cladding diameter. Other blade sizes are available on special order.
