Lapping Film – Fibre Optic Polishing Sheets

Lapping film polishing sheets provide a precision abrasive surface for polishing and finishing fibre optic connectors and ferrules. Use the correct abrasive grade at each polishing stage to produce a smooth, clean fibre end-face.

Fibre optic technicians, installers and termination workshops use lapping film when they need consistent, controlled polishing results.

Precision Polishing for Fibre Optics

Lapping film helps you control how much material you remove during the polishing process. Start with the appropriate grade for your application and progress through finer grades to achieve the required finish.

Use lapping film with a suitable polishing puck, fixture and polishing system for the connector you are terminating.

Choose the Right Lapping Film Grade

Different abrasive grades perform different polishing tasks:

• Coarse grades – Remove material during initial polishing.
• Intermediate grades – Refine the fibre and remove polishing marks.
• Fine grades – Produce a smoother fibre end-face.
• Ultra-fine grades – Provide final finishing where required.

Always follow the recommended polishing sequence for your connector and polishing system.

Ideal for Fibre Optic Termination

Lapping film suits fibre optic connector termination, repair and maintenance applications. It helps technicians achieve repeatable polishing results without relying on inconsistent abrasive surfaces.

After polishing, inspect the fibre end-face with a fibre inspection microscope to identify scratches, contamination, chips or other defects.
