Overview
The US Conec 14682 Disposable Ribbonizer is a specialized tool designed to create 1x8 fiber ribbons from individual 250µm fibers. It is primarily used to prepare fiber for MT and PRIZM® MT multi-fiber connector termination and mass fusion splicing applications.
Constructed with a molded polyethylene (PE) body and a stainless steel wire spring, this tool allows for effective ribbonization even when working in confined, high-density spaces. The use of cyanoacrylate epoxy ensures rapid ribbonization, resulting in a robust ribbon capable of withstanding demanding cable preparation processes.
