✅ FAQ
Q1: What is the difference between the Fujikura CT-16A and CT-16B?
A: The CT16A and CT16B variants differ in their fiber adapter configuration,
optimized for different fiber preparation setups. Both deliver the same precision
cleaving performance. Contact us if you need help selecting the right variant for
your application.
Q2: Can the Fujikura CT-16 cleave two fibers at the same time?
A: Yes. When paired with the Fujikura SS-05 dual fiber stripper, the CT-16 can
cleave two bare fibers simultaneously, doubling your fiber preparation speed.
Q3: How long does the CT-16 blade last?
A: The CT-16 blade is rated for approximately 48,000 fiber cleaves — one of the
longest blade lives in its class, significantly reducing your cost per cleave.
Q4: Is the Fujikura CT-16 drop-resistant?
A: Yes. The CT-16 is shock-resistant for drops up to 30 inches (76cm) in any of
six orientations, making it durable enough for demanding field environments.
Q5: Is the CT-16 ambidextrous?
A: Yes. By swapping the scrap collector and fiber adapter, the CT-16 can be
configured for both left-handed and right-handed operation.
Q6: What replacement blade does the Fujikura CT-16 use?
A: The CT-16 uses the CB-09 replacement blade, available as an optional accessory.
Q7: What cleave angle does the CT-16 achieve?
A: The CT-16 achieves an average cleave angle of 0.3–0.9°, meeting the stringent
requirements for low-loss fusion splicing.
