AFL RS03 Thermal Fiber Stripper for up to 16-Fiber Ribbon, Battery-Powered

The AFL RS03 Thermal Stripper delivers superior performance for single and multi-fiber stripping. With a fast 3-second heating time, it maximizes productivity. Ergonomic design and low pulling force make it comfortable and easy to use for high fiber count applications. The RS03 optical fiber stripper handles 200 μm coated fibers and ribbons, with an audible beep and LED indicating when the proper temperature is reached. A temperature selection switch allows easy optimization for different fibers or operating conditions. Compatible with all Fujikura field and factory-style fiber holders.

Bluetooth® capability lets users program the RS03 via an Android or iOS smartphone app for personalized operation. Its powerful Lithium-Ion battery provides enough power for approximately 600 stripping cycles.
