Fiber cleaver

July 1, 1997
The OFC2000 cleaver can be used right-handed or left-handed and can be mounted on a benchtop or tripod or held by hand.

The OFC2000 cleaver can be used right-handed or left-handed and can be mounted on a benchtop or tripod or held by hand. Easy fiber preloading, preset stops, and scale contribute to produce accurate cleave lengths. The cleaver provides 99% of cleaves with angles of less than 1.0 in both single-mode and multimode 125-µm fiber.
