3 um Lapping Film / Polishing Paper for Fiber
3 um lapping film (polishing paper) used to polish and finish POF and glass fiber end faces during connector assembly.
3 um lapping film is a precision polishing abrasive used to finish fiber optic end faces during connector assembly and field termination. The 3 micron grade is a fine polishing step that leaves a flat, scratch-free fiber end for low-loss coupling.
Product Overview
Lapping film is used on a polishing puck/tool with the fiber connector held in a fixture. The 3 um grit is a final/fine polish step after coarser grades, producing an optical-quality end face on POF and glass fiber.
It is a consumable for fiber assembly workshops and field termination kits.

FAQ
Is 3 um the only grit needed? No. A typical polish uses coarse, medium and fine steps; 3 um is the final fine grade. We supply lapping film in a range of grits for the full polish sequence.
Why Choose Us
We stock the full grit sequence so a workshop can complete a proper multi-step polish rather than a single coarse step.
