Shaxon FCLC-SM-10-B, LC Fiber Optic Connectors, Single Mode, 10 Pack

I erroneously gave this product a bad review. The ferrules fit 9 micron fiber just fine, although it is a major PITA trying to fit it through without breaking the fiber. These connectors work just fine.

New to fiber stuff, but seems like these lack the Locking feature to keep the fiber from moving around.I read a post about glue , but have not seen any videos that used a glue to hold the fiber in place.The ferrule will crimp on the 3mm outter jacket just fine, but the glass fiber has no way to keep in aligned at the end if the mating opening for best coupling.I could be missing a step, but after taking one apart there is only a compression spring inside for the tip insertion and nothing else to help keep the fiber from sliding back out of the correct position.Anyone else have any ideas...?

Label was confusing, said single mode 62.5/125

These are made very accurately. They make for a very good and effective fiber splice. They even come with a plastic piece to make them a double side by side very close together.

Says singlemode, but it seems that these were made for both SM and MM. As such, you're constantly breaking fiber trying to get a SM fiber into a hole that seems to be a middle ground between a 62.5 and a 125. We've terminated alot of fiber, and wasted an entire lack of these to get one that worked. Good value on it's face, but when you consider that you'll probably burn through five to get one solid connection, that value goes away.

good product a little expense

Works Great! Thank You!

If you aren't a professional (I'm not) these are going to be useless. You need optical gels, glues, cleaners, etc.
