Fiberoptic Polishing Kit

Includes:

    Polishing Plate - The clear Lexan polishing plate (FS600) plate provides the type of hard surface needed to polish connectors requiring a hard surface polish.

    Polishing Pad - The neoprene polishing pad provides a cushioned surface with a (60-70) durometer for those connectors requiring a softer polishing surface.

    Polishing Pucks - Two polishing pucks are provided for ST, SC, and FC connectors--one plastic (FS800) and one stainless steel (FS900). Two different types of pucks are provided so that installers/technicians have a choice between the longer lasting, more durable stainless steel puck, and the value-priced, disposable plastic puck.

    Polishing Films - The Ripley AngstromLap aluminum oxide polishing films (PFA0-.5, PFA0-3, and PFA0-12) ensure the finest polish and performance for fiberoptic connectors. For single mode PC, Super PC, Ultra PC, and Angle (APC) connectors, return loss performance will meet or exceed specifications. Yield remains high because of Ripley AngstromLap's lot-to-lot consistency. Each film is color-coded for easy identification. Ten (10) sheets of each type of film are included in the kit.

    Cleaning Wipes and Bifurcated Swipes - Completing the Kit are 25-each 5 3/4" x 5 3/4" (146 mm x 146 mm) lint-free wipes (F1000) and 10-each bifurcated swipes (FS400). Both the wipes and the swipes contain 99% isopropyl alcohol. Both are used for cleaning the fiber after stripping and before cleaver insertion. They also provide a more convenient method of fiber and connector end-face cleaning.




Fiber-Safe Safety Kit


Ripley, the leader in Fiberoptic/Telcom tools, has developed a Fiber-Safe safety kit specifically for working safely with glass fiber. Its contents include a Fiber-Safe polishing /work mat, fiber scraps trash can, splinter removal tweezer, ten bifurcated cleaning swipes, each with a self-contained alcohol dispensing tube, and safety glasses.

Includes:

    Polishing/Work Mat - The vinyl 35.5cm x 56cm (14" x 22") black work mat serves a dual purpose. Its primary function is to allow you to easily see the fiber scraps instead of trying to find them on a lighter colored work surface. It can also serve as a sub-surface for some polishing applications. Instead of using a hard, non-giving surface, you have a resilient mat that depresses easily and allows you to quickly pick up the fibers you are working on.

    Fiber Scraps Trash Can - The disposable fiber scraps trash can gives you the safest method of disposing of glass fiber scraps because it can be incinerated when full.

    Splinter Removal Tweezer - The splinter removal tweezer’s teflon coating provides the cushioning you need to remove glass fiber splinters without shattering or breaking the glass.

    Bifurcated Cleaning Swipes - You will really appreciate the bifurcated (two-pronged) swipes that put an end to working with messy bottles of alcohol and hand wipes to clean fiber ends before splicing, cleaving or terminating fiber. The tube contains 99% isopropyl alcohol. Hand pressure breaks the seal, and the alcohol is dispensed only when you squeeze the tube, reducing evaporation and alcohol waste.

    Safety Glasses - The safety glasses, which should always be worn when working with fiber, complete the kit. They have a single lens wrap-around feature to provide additional safety, the latest technology in safety glasses.
