Flexible, craft-friendly buffer tubes
Facilitate easy routing in closures
SZ-stranded, loose tube design
Isolates fibers from installation and environmental rigors and facilitates mid-span access
Dielectric central strength member
No preferential bend and requires no bonding or grounding
Polyethylene jacket
Rugged, durable and easy to strip (while providing superior protection against UV radiation, fungus, abrasion and other environmental factors)
