Micro Electronics Micro-Strip® MS‑1‑FS Fiber Stripper for 125/900µm Buffer Fiber

MS1-08S-40-FS

Micro-Strip 900/125um Fiber Stripper, .0080 (203um) Blade, .0400 (1016um) Tube Guide
The Micro Electronics Micro-Strip® MS1-08S-40-FS Fiber Optic Stripper is designed to mechanically strip 889–1016µm buffered fiber quickly and easily, exposing 125–175µm cladding. Its patented, self-centering stripping system ensures precise, concentric scoring without damaging the cladding or core, making it ideal for fiber optic assembly, repair, and production environments.

To operate, insert the optical fiber through the guide until the end aligns with the strip-length markings. Squeeze the handles closed to bring the blades together and precisely score the buffer or coating. While maintaining light pressure, withdraw the fiber to complete the strip. The coating is cleanly removed, leaving the glass fiber smooth and undamaged.
