Fujikura FH-60-LT900 Fiber Holders for 900 µm Loose-Buffer Fiber
Fujikura FH-60-LT900 Fiber Holders are designed to securely position 900 µm loose-buffer single fiber during compatible stripping, cleaving, and fusion splicing workflows. Supplied as a matching pair, these precision holders support repeatable fiber handling and a nominal 14 mm cleave length from the buffer. Compatible with selected Fujikura 90S, 70S, 60S, 21/22S, 19S, and 12S splicers. Available from Simbol Test Systems, an authorized Canadian distributor and service center for AFL and Fujikura products.
Fujikura FH-60-LT900 Fiber Holders
The Fujikura FH-60-LT900 Fiber Holders are designed to securely position 900 µm loose-buffer single fiber during professional fiber preparation and fusion splicing. Supplied as a matching pair, these holders help maintain consistent fiber positioning as the fiber moves through compatible stripping, cleaving, and splicing operations.
Loose-buffer fiber requires a holder designed for its construction and dimensions. The FH-60-LT900 supports 900 µm loose-buffer fiber while establishing the positioning required for compatible Fujikura fusion splicing workflows. Correct fiber placement helps reduce unnecessary handling and supports repeatable preparation from one splice to the next.
The FH-60-LT900 is compatible with selected Fujikura fusion splicers, including the 90S, 70S, 60S, 21/22S, 19S, and 12S Series. Compatibility with a specific splicer, cleaver, stripper, or accessory configuration should be verified before ordering.
Precision Holding for 900 µm Loose-Buffer Fiber
The Fujikura FH-60-LT900 is intended specifically for 900 µm loose-buffer single fiber. The matching holders secure the fiber on both sides of the splicing system and help preserve the required positioning during preparation and fusion.
- Loose-buffer fiber support: Designed for compatible 900 µm loose-buffer single-fiber construction.
- Matching holder pair: Supplied as left- and right-side holders for compatible fusion splicing systems.
- Controlled fiber positioning: Helps stabilize the fiber during preparation, loading, alignment, and splicing.
- Nominal 14 mm cleave length: Supports a consistent cleave-length setup from the loose buffer.
- Reduced direct handling: Allows the prepared fiber to remain secured while moving between compatible tools.
- Multiple splicer families: Compatible with selected Fujikura 90S, 70S, 60S, 21/22S, 19S, and 12S models.
- Professional fiber preparation: Suitable for field, laboratory, production, installation, and restoration workflows.
Consistent Fiber Preparation and Transfer
Fiber holders help maintain a consistent preparation workflow by securing the fiber before stripping or cleaving and keeping it positioned during transfer to the fusion splicer. This can reduce the need to handle the exposed fiber directly after preparation.
The FH-60-LT900 establishes a nominal 14 mm cleave length from the buffer when used with the appropriate preparation configuration. The actual setup must be confirmed against the fusion splicer, cleaver, and fiber construction being used.
Clean holder surfaces are important for repeatable fiber placement. Dust, coating debris, cleaning residue, or damaged clamping surfaces can interfere with fiber positioning. The holders should be inspected and cleaned according to Fujikura maintenance procedures before use.
Compatible Fujikura Fusion Splicers
The Fujikura FH-60-LT900 is compatible with selected fusion splicers from several Fujikura product generations. Supported equipment includes selected models in the following series:
- Fujikura 90S Series
- Fujikura 70S Series
- Fujikura 60S Series
- Fujikura 21S and 22S Series
- Fujikura 19S Series
- Fujikura 12S Series
Compatibility may depend on the specific splicer model, installed holder base, cleaver, cleave-length requirement, fiber construction, and preparation accessories. Confirm the complete model number and application before ordering.
Loose-Buffer and Tight-Buffer Fiber Holders
The FH-60-LT900 should not be confused with a standard FH-60-900 holder. The FH-60-LT900 is intended for compatible 900 µm loose-buffer fiber, while another holder may be required for tight-buffered or differently constructed 900 µm fiber.
The fiber’s actual construction should be confirmed rather than selecting the holder using only the nominal outside diameter. Buffer material, stiffness, wall thickness, coating diameter, stripping method, and cleave-length requirement may affect holder selection.
Applications for the FH-60-LT900 Fiber Holders
- Fusion splicing of compatible 900 µm loose-buffer single fiber
- Fiber preparation using compatible Fujikura equipment
- Telecom and broadband fiber installation
- FTTx network construction and maintenance
- Fiber restoration and repair operations
- Laboratory and production splicing
- Single-fiber preparation requiring controlled holder positioning
Why Buy Fujikura FH-60-LT900 Fiber Holders from Simbol Test Systems?
Simbol Test Systems supplies professional fusion splicers, fiber holders, cleavers, thermal strippers, electrodes, cleaning products, and related fiber preparation accessories. As an authorized Canadian distributor and service center for AFL and Fujikura products, we support customers with product selection, repair, maintenance, and technical service.
Correct fiber-holder selection depends on the splicer model, fiber construction, buffer diameter, cleaver, and required cleave length. Simbol Test Systems can help determine whether the FH-60-LT900 is appropriate for your loose-buffer fiber and Fujikura fusion splicing equipment.

Selection and Compatibility Guidance
Confirm that the fiber is a compatible 900 µm loose-buffer construction before selecting the FH-60-LT900. A standard 900 µm tight-buffer fiber may require a different holder.
Also confirm the fusion splicer model, installed holder base, cleaver model, stripping method, and required cleave length. Compatibility with equipment outside the identified Fujikura splicer families should be verified before ordering.
Care and Maintenance
Inspect the holder grooves and clamping surfaces before each use. Remove dust and coating residue using the cleaning method recommended for Fujikura fiber holders. Do not place stripped fiber into a holder containing debris or damaged clamping surfaces.
Store the holders as a matching pair in a clean, protected container. Avoid dropping, bending, or modifying the holders because physical damage may affect fiber positioning and preparation consistency.
Professional Support and Availability
Contact Simbol Test Systems with the fusion splicer model, cleaver, fiber construction, buffer diameter, and cleave-length requirement to request Fujikura FH-60-LT900 availability, compatibility assistance, maintenance, replacement, or technical support.
