The AFL Precision Strip Tool (vendor part S018617, Millennium part 617532) is a bench-top mechanical stripper used to remove buffer coating from fiber prior to cleaving and fusion splicing. It gives splicing techs a repeatable, consistent strip length that reduces fiber breakage compared to hand tools, which matters on high-count splice jobs. Fiber optic splicing crews rely on it to keep prep work fast and fiber loss low. Millennium stocks matching replacement blades and the cleaning brush accessory to keep the tool in service.
