FK11 and FK12 optical fiber cleavers

The FK11 & FK12 Fiber Optic Cleavers - based on the groundbreaking "YORK" cleavers - are widely recognised as the best cleavers in the world. Using an ultrasonic cleaving method, the FK cleavers provide accurate cleaves time after time in demanding lab, factory or field applications.
The FK range covers a wide range of fibre types and sizes to meet every cleaving application. Whether fusion splicing in the field or connectorizing in the lab, the FK series cleavers are fast and easy to use. The product range includes high strength cleaves, long and short cleave lengths, angled cleaves, large diameter fibers (up to 400um).
