Hubbell Premise Wiring OFCLV3 Fiber Cleave Tool

Product Description

The HUBBELL PREMISE WIRING OFCLV3 is a single-fiber cleave tool designed for precision cleaving of optical fiber strands during fiber optic termination and splicing work. Cleaving produces a clean, flat end-face on the fiber, which is critical for achieving low-loss connections in any fiber optic installation. This tool is used by licensed electricians, low-voltage technicians, and fiber installation contractors who require consistent, repeatable cleave quality across single-fiber work. Its compact form factor suits both bench work and field service calls.

The OFCLV3 is suited for single-fiber termination tasks in residential and commercial structured cabling environments. Typical applications include terminating fiber patch runs, preparing fibers for mechanical or fusion splicing, and fiber optic network installations where end-face quality directly affects signal integrity. It fits naturally into a fiber technician's standard toolkit alongside strippers, connectors, and polishing supplies.

Key Features

• Designed for single-fiber cleaving to produce flat, low-loss end-faces
• Supports clean termination for fusion splicing and mechanical connector work
• Compact tool suitable for both field service and bench installation environments
• Sold as an individual unit for targeted replacement or kit supplementation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style cleave tool for single-fiber optical fiber termination applications in structured cabling and low-voltage fiber optic systems.

Installation Notes

Fiber cleaving and termination work should be performed by qualified low-voltage technicians or licensed electricians familiar with fiber optic handling procedures. Always power down active fiber transmitters before working on live fiber runs to avoid exposure to laser light. Handle cleaved fiber ends with care and dispose of fiber scraps properly, as bare glass fibers present a puncture hazard. Follow applicable local codes and ANSI/TIA structured cabling standards for fiber termination procedures.
