3SAE Thermal Stripper-Adjustable (TS-ADJ)

High Strength Adjustable Thermal Stripper

The 3SAE Thermal Strippers are compact, easy-to-use optical ­fiber stripping units designed to thermo-mechanically remove coatings from optical ­fibers.

The High Strength Thermal Stripper supports standard 125 μm optical ­fibers, including 250 μm, 400 μm, and 900 μm coated ­fibers. Adjustable temperature and time settings allow it to adapt to stripping a variety of different coatings. The precision, self-centering blade design produces high strength stripping performance unmatched by previous flat blade strippers.

The High Strength Adjustable Thermal Stripper supports optical ­fibers with cladding diameters from 30 μm to 1000 μm, with buffer diameters up to 1200 μm. This includes standard 250 μm, 400 μm, and 900 μm coated ­fibers. Adjustable temperature and time settings allow it to adapt to stripping a variety of different optical fiber coatings and cladding sizes.

3SAE’s complete line of preparation tools, including the 3SAE Thermal Strippers, are configurable for use with Fitel, Fujikura, 3SAE or Ericsson fiber holders. Use of fiber holders provides a repeatable handling process across strip, clean, cleave and splice equipment for high strength fusion splicing and improved yield.

3SAE’s complete line of fiber holder compatible preparation tools incorporates the 3SAE Thermal Stripper, 3SAE Ultrasonic Cleaner, and 3SAE fiber cleavers.
