Overview
The Tempo Communications PA1177 ProGrip 3-in-1 Fiber Optic Stripper is a versatile, precision-engineered tool designed to streamline fiber preparation. By consolidating the three most common stripping applications into a single handheld device, it simplifies the workflow for network engineers and fiber technicians working in data centers, telecommunications, and field installation environments.
Engineered for consistency and accuracy, this tool features factory-calibrated, CNC-ground stripping cavities. Its robust construction is complemented by dual-durometer ProGrip handles, which are ergonomically designed to provide superior control and reduce hand fatigue during repetitive termination tasks.
Key Features
-
3-in-1 Design
Combines three essential fiber stripping functions into one tool, reducing the need for multiple instruments in the field. -
Precision CNC Ground Cavities
Ensures accurate stripping of various fiber coatings without damaging the glass, resulting in higher quality terminations. -
Factory Calibrated
Ready for immediate use out of the box with consistent, reliable performance for each specified fiber diameter. -
Dual-Durometer ProGrips
Ergonomic handle design provides a comfortable, slip-resistant grip for better control during precise stripping operations. -
2.0mm Jacket Stripping
Dedicated cavity for safely removing the outer protective jacket of standard fiber optic cables. -
900 µm Buffer Stripping
Provides clean removal of the tight buffer layer common in indoor cabling and pigtails. -
250 µm Coating Stripping
Precisely removes the acrylate coating to expose the bare glass fiber without causing nicks or surface defects.
Applications
- Data center fiber cabling installation
- Telecommunications network maintenance
- Field fiber optic termination
- Fiber splicing preparation
