A key advantage of our fiber arrangement tool is the use of the ribbon forming adhesive. Ribbons formed with this adhesive have excellent stripability, especially compared to ribbonizing methods using tape. Unlike tape methods, the paste does not “gum-up” the stripping tool and cause broken fibers. The paste holds the stripped coating residue into a single piece of debris that is easily cleaned from the stripper. If needed, the ribbon can be easily separated into individual fibers using alcohol.
