With the proper cutter-blade set and tube guide seated in the handle assembly, these strippers are easy to use. Simply insert fiber through tube guide into fiber-support channel, squeeze handles closed, and withdraw perfectly stripped, undamaged fiber from tool. When handles are opened, stripped buffer/coating material falls out. Design of tool components assures precision alignment of blades and fiber, for perfect concentric scoring without damaging cladding or core. Kit includes a selection of the most-used components for stripping of fiberoptic buffer/coating up to 900µ, together with complete instructions, cleaning brush, and push-out tool.
