																With the rapid 
																increase in use 
																of optical glass 
																fibres in 
																telecommunication 
																networks and 
																LAN's, there is 
																an increasing 
																need for high 
																quality fibre 
																connections. A 
																good connection 
																starts with a 
																good end, a good 
																end starts with 
																a good cut, and 
																a good cut 
																starts with a 
																Awindiamond 
																diamond cleaving 
																knife. 
																
																
																
																Awindiamond can 
																supply diamond 
																cleaving edges 
																on any holder 
																that you desire. 
																The holder can 
																be made to fit 
																your tool or 
																equipment. We 
																also have a 
																range of 
																standard 
																products on Mo 
																holders, both 
																repairable 
																(SS-series) and 
																non-repairable 
																(TA-series). You 
																will find an 
																Awindiamond 
																diamond cleaving 
																edge in most 
																commercial 
																cleaving 
																machines.

																Diamond 
																Hand-held 
																Cleaving Knives 
																
																
																
																For the less 
																demanding 
																applications, 
																e.g. in quality 
																control, we 
																offer hand-held 
																diamond cleaving 
																knives, in three 
																variations: 
																
																	
																		- 
																		
																		
																		
																		Model 
																		5280 has 
																		a 
																		straight 
																		edge 
																		with an 
																		included 
																		angle of 
																		60(infinity), 
																		centrally 
																		placed 
																		on the 
																		holder.
																		
																		
																		  
																		- 
																		
																		
																		
																		Model 
																		5288 has 
																		the same 
																		edge, 
																		but is 
																		placed 
																		flush 
																		with the 
																		holder. 
																		This 
																		facilitates 
																		cutting 
																		off 
																		fibres 
																		that for 
																		example 
																		stick 
																		out of a 
																		clamp 
																		holder.
																		
																		
																		  
																		- 
																		
																		
																		
																		Model 
																		5290 has 
																		a 
																		diamond 
																		that is 
																		tilted 
																		45(infinity) 
																		to the 
																		long 
																		axis, 
																		and can 
																		be used 
																		as a 
																		scribing 
																		device 
																		as well.
