Mid Span Slit & Ring Tool (9.8 mm-18.2 mm)

The Jonard Tools MS-526 Mid Span Slit and Ring Tool is designed to provide easy access to optical fibers in Corning Altos loose tube cable with binderless FastAcess technology (as well as other similar thin-walled 9.8 to 18.2 mm diameter jackets). 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.

• It consists of 4 precision slitting grooves and four precision ring grooves ranging from 9.8 mm to 18.2 mm.
• One side of the tool performs radial/ring cuts, and the other side slits the cable (longitudinal cut)
• The compact design, weighing less than 0.61 lb (277 g) and featuring an included tethering hole, makes it perfect for use in tight spaces or on the go.
• The indicator line on top of the unit indicates the blade's position for accurate slitting and ringing.
• This tool was specially designed for use on Corning Altos® loose tubes with FastAccess® technology cables and other similar-style cables.
• Replacement blade set available, part number: MS-526RB
• Blades last for 5,000 slits/cuts
