Abstract
A splice for crimping optical fibers includes two half-cylinders, a support block and a pressing block, which are mutually pressed by a crimping cylinder. The support block is provided with a longitudinal groove for receiving the stripped fiber and bears capped edges. The capped edges and stops are symmetrically mounted on either side of the longitudinal axis of the half-cylinders and are designed for maintaining axis of the half-cylinders and are designed for maintaining a small space between the two half-cylinders in the zone where they are located.
