Features:

• Enables separation of groups of fibers or single fibers and is not limited to only even- numbered groupings.
• One-handed operation allows the operator’s other hand to guide and control the ribbon at all times, minimizing the potential for accidental damage to the fibers or ribbon.
• Hand-held method eliminates the need to utilize valuable work surface space for operation and is the ideal solution for remote-site and aerial operations such as bucket truck or ladder-sling applications.
• Performing two overlapping separations of the ribbon allows any single fiber or any sub-group of fibers to be extracted from the ribbon, even in mid-span taut-sheath operations where minimal ribbon length is available.
