The patented MS-326 micro duct fiber cable slit and ring tool is designed to provide easy access into fiber optic cables specifically designed for use in micro ducts. These cables have a thin wall jacket design that is difficult to open without causing damage to the buffer tubes inside, but the MS-326 addresses that concern. The MS-326 will also slit open thin wall buffer tubes.Â
Building on the popularity of Jonard Tools' MS-6 and MS-26 fiber optic mid span slitting tools weve incorporated a ring feature into the MS-326 making it even more versatile.
The MS-326 consists of 5 precision slitting grooves and 5 ring grooves ranging in size from 5mm to 10mm.Â
Groove Sizes:
- 5.0 - 5.6 mm
- 6.0 - 6.6 mm
- 7.2 - 7.8 mm
- 7.8 - 8.4 mm
- 9.4 - 10 mm
Easy to use:
- Ring Cut (circumferential cut):
- Open ring side of tool and select correct groove size
- Place the cable in the tool and close
- Follow the rotation direction indicated by the arrow on the top cover
- Rotate the tool 3 times around the cable, then open and remove the cable
- Slit Cut (longitudinal cut):
- Open slit side of tool and select correct groove size
- Place the cable in the tool and close
- Use the marks on the side of the tool to align the blade inside the ridges of the cable
- Pull the tool in the direction indicated on the top of the tool
- Open the tool and remove cable, pick apart the jacket along the slitting line
