Sumitomo fc-6S fiber optic cleaver
The Sumitomo FC-6S high precision cleaver is designed for field use alongside the Sumitomo splicing units. By using a rotating blade for multiple scoring positions enables a blade life of 36,000 cleaves with a cleave angle better than 0.5 degrees. The unit is constructed to be robust and field serviceable and has options such as tripod mount to enable secure platform mounting. The FC-6S-C is the latest Sumitomo cleaver which includes a sharps waste bin eliminating fibre waste hazard. Integral to the unit is a cleave length scale which helps facilitate exact lengths during cleaving.
