It is suitable for FTTH installations, fiber optic maintenance, mid-span access, cable sheath removal, and other optical cable preparation applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeaturing a dual-direction stripping design, the AUA-F9 can perform both transverse (circumferential) and longitudinal (axial) cuts. This allows technicians to open cable sheaths efficiently without requiring separate tools for different cutting operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe tool supports fiber optic cables with outer sheath diameters from 8 mm to 30 mm, providing compatibility with a wide range of cable sizes. Its adjustable blade depth mechanism and integrated millimeter depth scale allow the cutting depth to be accurately set according to the cable sheath thickness. This helps minimize the possibility of accidentally damaging the internal fibers, buffer tubes, or other cable components.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor longitudinal cable slitting, the cable is positioned in the appropriate cutting channel and the blade depth is adjusted before guiding the tool along the length of the cable. For transverse cutting, the tool can be rotated 360° around the cable to create a clean circumferential cut through the outer sheath.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe AUA-F9 is equipped with a durable cast-metal cutter head designed for dependable performance in demanding field environments. The ergonomic double-handle construction provides a comfortable and secure grip, allowing technicians to maintain better control during cutting operations while reducing manual effort.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompact and practical, the COMPTYCO AUA-F9 Fiber Optic Cable Slitting Tool is a valuable addition to any professional fiber optic technician`s toolkit, particularly for cable sheath opening, mid-span access, longitudinal slitting, and circumferential stripping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpecification \/ Parameter\tDetail \/ Value\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\tCOMPTYCO\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel\tAUA-F9\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduct Name\tFiber Optic Cable Transverse \u0026amp; Longitudinal Stripping Knife\u003cbr\u003eApplication\tFiber optic cable sheath opening, stripping and slitting\u003cbr\u003eCompatible Cable Diameter\t8–30 mm\u003cbr\u003eStripping Modes\tTransverse (circumferential) and Longitudinal (axial)\u003cbr\u003eTransverse Cutting\t360° circumferential cutting\u003cbr\u003eLongitudinal Cutting\tAxial cable slitting\u003cbr\u003eBlade Type\tAdjustable cable stripping blade\u003cbr\u003eCutter Head Construction\tCast metal\u003cbr\u003eBlade Depth Adjustment\tAdjustable with integrated depth scale\u003cbr\u003eDepth Scale\tVisual millimeter scale\u003cbr\u003eHandle Design\tErgonomic double-handle design\u003cbr\u003eProduct Dimensions\t220 × 123 × 58 mm (L × W × H)\u003cbr\u003eNet Weight\tApprox. 0.65 kg\u003cbr\u003eGross Weight\tApprox. 0.76 kg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Applications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFiber optic cable sheath removal\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFTTH cable preparation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMid-span access\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLongitudinal cable slitting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCircumferential cable cutting\u003cbr\u003eOutdoor fiber optic cable maintenance\u003cbr\u003eFiber optic installation and repair\u003cbr\u003eOptical cable preparation for splicing\u003cbr\u003eWhat`s in the Box\u003cbr\u003e1 × COMPTYCO AUA-F9 Fiber Optic Cable Slitting Tool\u003cbr\u003e1 × Hex \/ Allen Wrench\u003cbr\u003e1 × User Instruction Manual\u003cbr\u003e1 × Protective Packaging Box\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"COMPTYCO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46145946583087,"sku":"AUA-F9","price":1799.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0764\/3047\/5311\/files\/aua-f9-1.jpg?v=1788870118","url":"https:\/\/alcell.co.za\/products\/comptyco-aua-f9-fiber-optic-cable","provider":"Alcell","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
