Using the Fiber Ribbon Access Tool
- Remove the Jacket
- Place the jacketed ribbon fiber in the stripping station located in the middle of the tool.
- Close the tool completely, keeping ribbon fiber securely in the stripping station to pierce through the jacket.
- Grasp the jacket between your thumb and fingers and pull the jacket to remove it. (This method is generally preferred instead of using the tool to force or strip the jacket, which can cause the jacket to bind up on the fiber or Kevlar yarn.)
- Cut the Kevlar Strengthening Yarn
