Ball-Tip Quartz Fiber QT-09
Ball-tip silica fiber is a special optical fiber with a spherical tip at one end. This design concentrates light emitted from, or collected into, the fiber end face. Ball-tip silica fibers are generally used for precise optical measurements and efficient optical-signal coupling. Silica offers excellent optical transparency and low optical loss, so these fibers are widely used in communications, medicine, and scientific research. Their manufacture involves precision processing. High-purity silica glass is first prepared and drawn into fiber. Specific heating and shaping methods, such as CO2 laser heating, then melt one end face into a spherical structure. Heating temperature and duration must be precisely controlled to meet the required tip shape and size. Main characteristics include low loss, high transmission efficiency, and good optical performance. Silica itself has a relatively low refractive index and damage threshold, allowing low-loss signal transmission over a broad wavelength range. The spherical tip further optimizes coupling efficiency and concentrates transmitted light, which is critical to overall fiber-system performance. Because of their distinctive structure and excellent optical performance, ball-tip silica fibers are widely used in multiple fields. In communication systems they can improve signal transmission efficiency and quality. In medicine they support precise optical imaging and laser surgery. They are also commonly used for optical measurement and precise signal control in research experiments.

Compatible Fiber Types: Single-Core Silica Fiber Compatible Fiber Specifications: Ø0.25 mm/Ø0.9 mm/Pigtail Clamp Type: Multifunction Fixture
JCOPTIX offers the full COMWAY range of high-quality fiber-processing tools, combining high precision, efficiency, long life, and versatility. Precise blade-gap calibration for thermal stripping and stripping tools avoids core damage and removes coatings evenly without residue. Convenient operation and maintenance support fiber splicing in communication engineering, data centers, FTTH, emergency field repair, research, and teaching, making them standard tools for professional splicing. Fiber cleavers. Models: CC-03, C108, C109, C109M. High-precision cleaving. Durable, long-lived construction. Easy operation and maintenance. JCOPTIX supplies original COMWAY cleavers with precision mechanics and hard-alloy blades for stable cleave angles. Blade life reaches up to 48000 cleaves, combining efficiency, precision, and durability. Place fibers in the correct groove strictly according to instructions. If fibers do not cleave or edges are rounded, adjust the blade position with the screw and cleave again. If quality deteriorates noticeably, generally after 1000-1500 fibers, loosen the blade-clamping screw and adjust the blade position according to instructions. Thermal fiber strippers. Models: CS-06, CS-09. Thermal stripping without fiber damage. Four temperature settings and dual modes. Portable, long battery life. Easy operation and maintenance. Original COMWAY strippers use constant-temperature thermal stripping instead of conventional cold stripping to avoid core scratches and coating residue. Four temperatures, dual modes, a high-capacity lithium-ion battery, and Type-C fast charging suit bundled fibers, ribbon cables, pigtails, bare fibers, invisible fibers, and other fiber coatings. Replace both blades together according to instructions. Fiber stripping pliers. Model: CS-02-B. Three-hole design. Safety lock. Easy, quick operation. Original COMWAY pliers include 3 standard stripping openings for layered removal of 2.0-3.0 mm outer jackets, 900 μm buffers, and 250 μm coatings in one operation. Micrometer-calibrated hard-alloy blades prevent core scratches and breaks; ergonomic nonslip handles combine efficiency and durability. Users may adjust aperture size as needed, but manual adjustment cannot be restored to factory settings with one action. Open the safety lock before use.
