Sticklers fibre optic cleaning products on display at ECOC

The Sticklers high volume cleaning kits contain all the equipment needed to clean thousands of SC, FC, ST, E2000, LC and MU connectors, both unmated and in-bulkhead, all in a handy, rugged and easy-to-find woven bag. Each kit contains two ‘push-to-clean’ CleanClicker fibre optic connector cleaners along with the necessary cleaning fluids, lint-free wipes and Stickler CleanStixx end-face cleaners. Each kit contains enough materials to clean more than 2,300 connectors. The kits are available in commercial and ‘Military Ready’ versions. Uniquely, even though the kits contain cleaning fluids the kits are not hazardous and can be shipped anywhere in the world by ground, air or sea without restrictions or extra cost.

One of the biggest innovations in the Sticklers product line is the emphasis on speedy ‘wet-dry’ cleaning. Wet-dry cleaning eliminates static from the end-faces, resulting in cleaner fibre and faster, trouble-free networks. All of the products required for wet-dry cleaning are included in the new kits.

The ECOC Expo is one of the leading forums in Europe, Africa, Asia and the Middle East for fibre optic networking professionals. With a broad, inclusive series of technical presentations covering all aspects of fibre optic communications, industry leaders visit ECOC to connect with new vendors and learn about new technologies. All of the Sticklers fibre cleaning products, the CleanClicker fibre optic connector cleaners, the various cleaning kits, the unique Sticklers fibre optic cleaning fluid, the CleanStixx fibre cleaning sticks and a variety of high-performance lint-free wipes all will be on display at ECOC in historic Valencia, Spain.

The Sticklers family of fibre optic cleaning products is the industry’s most complete set of cleaning tools. They are engineered to meet diverse industry needs ranging from the cleaning of individual connectors and patch cords, to cleaning massive outside plant installations, to cleaning enterprise and private network systems. The Sticklers team also offers factory support for new product development and expert trouble-shooting for customer problems.

“With the addition of Sticklers CleanClicker fibre optic connector cleaners, fibre technicians are able to produce perfectly clean end-faces quickly, consistently and inexpensively,” said Scott Wells, Business Manager, EU. “There’s no excuse not to clean every end-face, every time it is mated.”

“We are looking forward to demonstrating the Sticklers ‘wet-dry’ cleaning process on fibre end-faces right at the ECOC show,” added Wells. “The fast-drying, non-flammable Sticklers cleaning fluid is incredibly convenient and works brilliantly. It effortlessly dissipates the static charge, unlocks any particulate that might be sticking to the end-faces, and out-performs any other cleaning products in the industry.”
