  • Perfect for field termination with no polishing required

  • Simplifies and speeds up the fiber installation process

  • Reduces labor costs with fast, clean cleaves

  • Portable design with rugged protective case

  • Promotes safe and efficient fiber scrap management

The FC-6S Fiber Cleaver is a high-precision tool engineered for professional fiber optic installations, delivering consistent, clean cleaves with minimal effort. Designed for single fiber cleaving, this compact and efficient cleaver is ideal for use in FTTH field splicing, data centers, and telecom fiber network deployments.

Built for portability and precision, the FC-6S Fiber Cleaver is widely trusted by fiber optic technicians due to its long blade life, automatic anvil drop, and low cleave angle of less than 0.5 degrees. Whether you’re terminating pre-polished fiber connectors or preparing fibers for fusion splicing, this tool ensures high-performance results in every cut.

Why Choose the FC-6S Fiber Cleaver?

When it comes to reliable and repeatable fiber preparation, the FC-6S Fiber Cleaver is the go-to solution. It’s designed to simplify the cleaving process while reducing fiber waste, increasing productivity, and delivering exceptional cleave accuracy.

Here’s what sets it apart:

Precision Engineering

With a rotating blade offering 12 scoring positions and 3 height levels, the FC-6S provides up to 36,000 cleaves per blade—maximizing operational life while minimizing maintenance.

Superior Cleave Quality

Achieve a typical cleave angle of <0.5°, critical for fusion splicing and high-speed fiber networks. The precision cleave reduces splice loss and improves overall system performance.
