The CLETOP optical fiber connector cleaners are rugged handheld tools for cleaning fiber optic connector end faces. The CLETOP cleaners quickly and effectively clean a variety of connectors. CLETOP cleaners are a safe cleaning option without the need for isopropyl alcohol, which is toxic and flammable. CLETOP cleaners have refillable cleaning tapes with 400 cleans per tape making them ideal for lab and field use. The simple push button shutter operation makes cleaning connectors quick and easy.

The CLETOP–S Series is a second generation CLETOP cleaner offering the same CLETOP cleaning performance with “drop-in” replacement tape cartridge and ergonomic design that works equally well for left or right handed operators.

Note:
The Blue Tape is the original color tape. It was used on connectors with 2.5mm diameter ferrules such as the FC, ST, and SC. With the introduction of the smaller 1.25mm diameter ferrules such as used in the LC connector and multifiber connectors such as the MPX, there was some concern the smaller geometry connectors might “snag” on the somewhat looser weave of the Blue Tape. Therefore, a smoother White Tape was developed. Over time, with very few exceptions, the looser weave of the Blue Tape turned out to not be a problem for the smaller geometry ferrules. Currently, the selection of Blue or White Tape is primarily user preference.
