Ripley Miller MB06-7000 Adjustable Slit/ Ring Tool, 0.05-0.25"

Overview

The Ripley Miller MB06-7000 is a precision adjustable slit and ring tool engineered for efficient fiber optic cable preparation. Designed to handle cables, buffer tubes, and jackets ranging from 0.05" to 0.25" (1.2 mm to 6.4 mm) in diameter, this tool provides consistent performance in both mid-span and end-stripping applications.

Featuring a compact, ergonomic design, the tool is ideal for operations in tight spaces where maneuverability is critical. The inclusion of a reversible V-block and a high-precision circular blade ensures accurate cutting without stalling or dragging. A built-in safety tab on the block is included to reduce the risk of accidental injury during use, making it a functional choice for field technicians and data center operators.
