The patented MS-316 from Jonard is a Mid Span Slit, and Ring Tool is designed to provide easy access to optical fibers in outer jackets and buffer tubes. Building on the popularity of the Jonard Tools MS-6 and MS-26 Fiber Optic Mid Span Slitting Tools, we have incorporated a ring feature in the tool to make it even more versatile.
The slit and ring MS-316 is designed to open fiber jackets and loose buffer tubes to provide easy fiber access. One side of the tool slits fiber jackets and loose buffer tubes, and the opposite side rings fiber jackets and loose buffer tubes. All done without damage to the fiber. Blades are replaceable. Note: Thin-walled cables are designed for cables used in ducts and micro ducts.
