    Tuckahoe, NY, USA - July 26, 2019 - Jonard Tools, engineering premium hand tools since 1958, has expanded its patented mid-span fiber optic slit and ring series. The mid-span series (MS series) includes tools that will slit, and ring cut cables ranging in sizes from 1.2mm up to 10mm. These patented tools were specifically designed to open cables without causing damage to the fibers and can be used on thin wall jackets, and buffer tubes

    “Our patented MS series of tools are going to help anyone working with fiber. These tools have simple grooves for cables of many sizes and create slits on both sides of the cable at once for easy mid-span access. We are also expanding the MS Series to include dual function MS tools for slit and ring operation; all-in-one tools with additional size options.” Ed Scirbona, Director of Engineering at Jonard Tools.
