AFL Fusion Splicer Protection Sleeve FP-60 60mm

Overview

The AFL FP-60 is a high-quality fusion splice protection sleeve designed to provide robust mechanical and environmental protection for fiber optic splices. Measuring 60mm in length, these sleeves are engineered for use with fusion splicers to secure the splice point after the fusion process is complete.

These protective sleeves feature a heat-shrinkable outer tube and an inner meltable adhesive liner that flows during the heating cycle to encapsulate the fiber, ensuring structural integrity and preventing moisture ingress. Designed for reliable performance in field and data center environments, they are a standard requirement for maintaining long-term splice stability.

Key Features

• 60mm Length
  Provides comprehensive coverage for the fusion splice point to ensure maximum protection.
• Heat-Shrink Design
  Ensures a secure, weather-tight seal around the fiber splice for lasting durability.
• Internal Adhesive Liner
  Flows during the heating process to fill voids and prevent fiber strain or degradation.
• Compatibility
  Engineered for seamless integration with a wide variety of standard fusion splicing equipment.
• Reliable Construction
  Manufactured to strict tolerances to ensure consistent shrinking performance and fiber alignment.
• Environmental Protection
  Protects sensitive splice points from dust, moisture, and mechanical stress in demanding conditions.

Applications

• Fusion splicing in outside plant environments
• Data center fiber management
• FTTx network installations
• Fiber optic patch panel terminations
