AFL S017465 Fujikura RT-02 Ribbonizing Tool

Overview

The AFL S017465 Fujikura RT-02 is a universal ribbonizing tool designed for the efficient, glue-less preparation of fiber optics. This tool enables technicians to quickly arrange 200µm and 250µm loose fibers into a 12-fiber ribbon configuration, facilitating easier fusion splicing processes.

The RT-02 simplifies fiber handling by allowing direct loading into a fiber holder. It features distinct color-coded guides for right and left fiber holders, and incorporates a triple-clamp system to secure fibers, preventing unwanted movement or crossovers during the preparation sequence. This ensures precise fiber alignment and consistent preparation lengths for subsequent stripping and cleaving.

Key Features

• Universal Compatibility
  Supports both 200µm and 250µm loose fibers for versatile application.
• Glue-less Ribbonizing
