Overview
The AFL S018611 FH-70-16PC Pitch Conversion Fiber Holder set is designed for precision fiber management during the ribbonizing process. This set of holders is specifically engineered for use with 200-micron loose fiber configurations, enabling the preparation of 16-fiber ribbons with ease.
These holders are designed to integrate seamlessly with the RT-02 Ribbonizing Tool. By allowing fibers to load directly into the holders, the system facilitates a quick, glue-less ribbonizing process, which reduces preparation time and improves consistency in high-density fiber installations.
