Fiber Optic Assembly Tools
This category offers you various assembly tools for the installation of fibre optic cables.
A high-quality range of fibre-optic tools – the right product for every need
In our range, you will find everything you need for the professional installation of fibre-optic cables. Thanks to our carefully curated selection, we cover all areas of application that may arise in the field, in data centres or on-site at the customer’s premises. Here are some highlights from our range:
- Fibre-optic splicing machines: For low-loss, permanently stable connections between fibre-optic cables – fast, precise and user-friendly. Differences in the number of motors, centring mechanisms and level of automation enable optimal use in FTTx, FTTH or backbone projects.
- Cleavers (fibre-breaking tools): Precision mechanical tools for the accurate cutting of fibre-optic ends – essential for preparing splices or field-terminated connectors.
- Splice protection solutions: Reliably protect the sensitive splice from mechanical stress and environmental influences. Whether heat-shrink or crimp protection – both variants are corrosion-resistant and easy to fit.
- Fibre-optic stripper: A versatile tool specially designed to strip fibre-optic cables safely and precisely without damaging the delicate fibre. It is ergonomically designed and equipped with safety features.
- Kevlar cutters: Specifically designed for cutting through Kevlar fibres in fibre-optic cables – featuring non-slip micro-serration and an ergonomic grip.
- LC-Connector-Pliers: Facilitate the insertion and removal of LC connectors in systems with a high connector density. The specially shaped teeth engage with the locking mechanism, enabling safe removal without damaging adjacent connectors.
- Fibre-optic hand-held microscope: For inspecting the connector end-face of single-mode and multi-mode fibres. With 200x or 400x magnification, even the finest traces of contamination or damage can be detected – recommended for a visual inspection before each connection.
With this fibre-optic tool, you are ideally equipped to install and maintain fibre-optic connections professionally, efficiently and with long-term reliability – regardless of the location or area of application.

Frequently asked questions
For a professional installation, we recommend a set of essential fibre-optic tools: a fusion splicer, a cleaver, a fibre-optic stripper and suitable splice protection. Additional tools such as Kevlar scissors, a microscope for inspecting end faces and LC pliers are also useful – depending on the type of fibre and the application, further accessories may be required.
Handling fibre-optic tools requires care: when splicing and testing fibre ends, you must never look directly at a live cable. Fibre-optic splinters are harmful to health and must be disposed of in special collection containers – safety goggles and clean work surfaces are also recommended.
When using fibre-optic tools, there are two common methods for protecting the splice: crimp splice protection is secured mechanically using a press – a quick process that does not require heat and is ideal for outdoor use. Heat-shrink splice protection, on the other hand, requires heat, usually applied via the splicing machine, and provides a particularly strong and smooth sheath. Both options offer reliable protection. The choice depends on the working environment and the equipment available.
