Simbol and AFL Telecommunications are pleased to offer a unique technology in fiber connector end-face cleaning. Rather than a fabric-covered or foam-covered stick, we are offering a molded cleaning tip that will trap contamination and wick cleaning solvents from bulkhead connectors. This new cleaning tip is a molded, sintered polymer that is both porous and pliable conforming to virtually any fiber end-face polish geometry while trapping and absorbing contaminants.
 
Features:

• Molded sintered polymer construction assures perfect bulkhead fit and consistent performance with each cleaning tip
• No fibers, binders, adhesives or outgassing that may contaminate the connector
• Traps and holds liquid and particle contaminants in an absorbent open cell matrix ranging from 10-25 microns
• The elastic cleaning head enhances entrapment of particles and oils, while allowing the tip to conform to virtually any fiber end-face geometry (8 degree, domed polish, etc.)
• Very absorbent
• US and Foreign patents pending

Applications:

• Dual-head design permits wet and dry cleaning in one swab
• Solvent and chemical resistant, not physically altered by solvent contact
• Designed to work with Noyes FCC2, Fiber Connector Cleaner
• Most connectors cleaned the first time configured for the job
• Cleaning tip exposed for cleaning ferrule end-faces in alignment sleeves that are recessed within sockets or bulkhead adaptors
• Also available with cleaning tips recessed in the “straw” for cleaning exposed ferrules and termini (jumpers)
• Cleaning tips available for most common commercial and Mil Spec ferrule sizes
• Quality construction with unlimited shelf life
• Cleaning tips are available in bags of 20, 5 bags per box, 10 boxes per carton

Tip Configurations:

• Cleaning tip exposed for cleaning ferrule end-faces in alignment sleeves that are recessed within sockets or bulkhead adaptors
• Also available with cleaning tips recessed in the “straw” for cleaning exposed ferrules and termini (jumpers)
