5.07 Storing 250 µm to 250 µm and 900 µm to 900 µm splices:

1. Store the shorter of the two fibers in the tray.
2. Observe how the splice lays in its relaxed state.  Rotate

the splice through the smallest possible angle to
install it in the tray.

3. Store the second fiber.

Storing 250 µm to 900 µm splices:
1. Store the 900 µm fiber first.
2. Grasping the splice by the 900 µm fiber, observe how the

splice lays in its relaxed state.  Rotate the splice
through the smallest possible angle to install it into the
tray.

3. Store the 250 µm fiber.

 Splicing Rigs, conventional camera-type tripods,

and other standard telco splicing rig components.  The
2505 Mounting Adapter provides the ability to mount the
Fibrlok Assembly Tool on a variety of surfaces, and in any
orientation, for splicing in difficult locations such as
manholes, aerial splice points, pedestals and distribution
frames.

6.01 The 3M Fibrlok

TM

 2524 Splice Organizer Tray holds up to 24

Fibrlok Splices and provides superior fiber and splice
organization.  Easily installed, the tray will accommodate up
to eight buffer tubes holding up to 48 fibers (250 µm or 900
µm coated fibers) and can be adapted for fusion splice
storage.

The 2524 Splice Tray fits and mounts into the 3M 2177

Fiber Optic Splice Closure, the 3M 2178 Fiber Optic Splice
Case and the 3M 2190 PST Fiber Optic Splice Closure.  It
is also compatible with a variety of non-3M closures.
