Soft-Strip Stripper, .0055 (140um) Blade, .0070 (180um) Guide

MS-4T-05S-07-FS

Soft-Strip Thermal Stripper, .0055 (140um) Blade, .0070 (180um) Tube Guide (Requires MS-T3 AC Adapter)
The Micro Electronics MS-4T-05S-07 Soft-Strip® Thermal Fiber Optic Stripper removes fiber coatings up to 180 µm to expose 85-120 µm fiber cladding. Equipped with a heater oven, its integral heating elements soften coatings and insulations such as Mylar, Kapton, Teflon, PVC, and Hytrel, allowing single-fiber stripping with less than 1 lb of pulling force. This helps prevent fiber damage and supports more consistent splices and connections.

The included fiber guide centers and supports the fiber during stripping, ensuring consistent blade engagement and reducing the risk of nicking the glass. Each tool uses the same interchangeable blade design as Micro Electronics’ non-thermal models and comes with a mini heater oven. Both the guide and blades are replaceable, making the system versatile and cost-effective.
