Fiber Optic Cable Stripper Alantec NI034 for FTTH cables

The Alantec NI034 Fiber Optic Cable Stripper is a hand tool designed for precise removal of outer jackets and coatings from fiber optic cables used in FTTH installations. It enables clean stripping of insulation without damaging the glass core, facilitating accurate preparation of fibers for splicing and connectorization. The tool is compact and suitable for field use by technicians and installers working on residential and small-business fiber runs.

Advantages

This stripper offers controlled jacket and coating removal with minimal risk to the fiber core. Its ergonomic design supports one-handed operation and reduces technician fatigue during repetitive tasks. The tool maintains consistent strip lengths and clean edges, which improves the reliability of subsequent splicing and connector termination. Durable materials and a simple adjustment mechanism make it suitable for frequent use in field conditions.

Suitable for

• Stripping outer jackets and coatings on FTTH drop and distribution cables
• Preparing fibers for fusion splicing and mechanical splicing
• Connectorization and termination of residential and small-business fiber runs

Key specifications

• Tool type: manual fiber optic cable stripper for FTTH cables
• Function: removes outer jacket and coating without contacting the glass core
• Operation: one-handed, ergonomic grip for field use
• Construction: durable body suitable for frequent use in installation environments
• Adjustment: simple mechanism to set strip length and accommodate common cable diameters

How to use

Secure the cable in the stripper at the desired stripping point, set the strip length if the tool has an adjustable stop, and apply steady pressure while pulling the tool along the jacket to remove the outer layer. Inspect the exposed fiber to ensure the glass core is intact and free from nicking or scratches. If necessary, repeat the operation to achieve the required bare fiber length for splicing or connectorization. Clean the stripped fiber with appropriate cleaning materials before proceeding with termination or splicing.

Usage recommendations

Use the stripper on cables within the tool's supported diameter range and avoid excessive force to prevent damage to the fiber. Maintain blades and adjustment points clean and free of debris; replace worn components as needed to preserve strip quality. Pair the tool with proper cleaning supplies, a microscopic inspection device, and suitable splicing or connectorization equipment for reliable FTTH installations.
