7.2. Bottom Inserts
Fiber holder bottom inserts sit in the bottom section of the fiber holding blocks and come in a variety of groove sizes.
They can be used to clamp the cladding, coating, or buffer of the fiber. The top inserts (sold above) and bottom
inserts can be paired in a variety of combinations to accommodate all fiber sizes compatible with the glass
processor, as shown in Figure 56.
There are two types of bottom inserts. The bottom inserts for fibers with cladding or buffer diameters up to
1.047 mm (indicated with Item #'s starting with VHF) are transfer inserts; they allow for a single fiber to be transferred
between the Vytran FPS300 Fiber Preparation Station, LDC400 Series of Fiber Cleavers, and glass
processors without loss of positional reference. All of these transfer inserts require the VHT1 transfer clamp; the
transfer inserts for diameters
≤
550 µm also require a graphite V-groove.

VHF160 112 µm / 208 µm
VHF250 177 µm / 320 µm
VHF400 279 µm / 519 µm
VHF500
346 µm / 795 µm
VHF750 516 µm / 1047 µm

Fiber Holder Bottom Inserts for larger cladding or buffer diameters (indicated with Item #'s starting with VHE)
come in single-sided and double-sided versions; the specified fiber diameter (in µm) is engraved on the part.
These bottom inserts can also be used in the FPS300 Fiber Preparation Station, LDC Series of Fiber Cleavers,
and LFS4100 Fusion Splicer. Positional reference of the fibers will not be maintained when these inserts are
transferred between systems.
