Quality Cleaning Saves Time and Money

It's not easy to clean a fiber optic connector when you're working in a manhole or squeezed into a cable closet. Since cleaning is hard to do, most people barely bothered to do it at all. But Sticklers™ has changed the game. Now it's easy to do the proper job.  

Only Sticklers™ cleaners have been engineered as a system -- the wipes, the CleanStixx™ and the cleaning fluid -- to give you just the right combination of packaging and tooling that delivers the best possible result at the lowest possible cost-per-cleaning.

A major portion of the Sticklers™ cleaning success comes from the quality engineered into the products. Because of this innovation and quality they out-perform all others. This companies that use Sticklers™ products the lowest total-cost-per-connector-cleaned, especially when multiplied across hundreds or even thousands of connections.

• It's not the cost of the solvent or the wipe that is the problem.
• It's the cost of sending the repair trucks to fix a problem that never should have happened.
• With the Sticklers™ products, it becomes easy to do it right the first time.

Save time and money, and clean with Sticklers™ quality.

Leading the Industry with Innovation

How do the Sticklers™ products deliver this quality cleaning?

First, you can't use a product transposed from some other industry, like a defluxer from electronics or a wipe from some medical application. The Sticklers™ team knows those industries, and knows that "borrowed" products are not capable of meeting the extraordinary requirements of fiber optics cleaning.

So the Sticklers™ developers started from scratch, and the list of innovations is long. Here's the key point:

The Sticklers™ products are the only products in the industry
engineered as a complete "wet-dry" cleaning system
to deliver the best possible result at the lowest possible cost-per-cleaning.

Here are a few other important benefits that will directly affect your bottom line -

• Sticklers™ CleanStixx™ swabs are double-packaged with super-clean, self-closing bags to keep dust, lint and fingerprints from the cleaning end of the swab.
• Sticklers™ CleanStixx™ swabs are produced using custom-made automated machinery, keeping them clean and completely eliminating the chance for operator error.
• Sticklers™ CleanStixx™ swabs are are molded, high-pressure precision tools with a soft, flat end-face that conforms to the connector end-face. Since the tips are not cloth or foam, they clean better and can lift away liquids and particulate.
• Sticklers™ CleanStixx™ swabs have a soft, flat end-face that cleans the entire end-face, not just the central "contact area". This eliminates an important source of contamination.
• The Sticklers™ CleanStixx™ swabs, Outdoor CleanWipes™ and Benchtop CleanWipes™ are all double-packaged to keep dust, lint and fingerprints off the cleaning products.
• The Sticklers™ Fiber Optic Splice and Connector Cleaner is a fluid that offers a unique mixture of ingredients never-before used on fiber optics. It cleans perfectly, dries fast, has no aroma and is non-hazardous.
• Only the Sticklers™ Fiber Optic Splice and Connector Cleaner is packaged with the patented Triton™ packaging, so techs can wet a wipe, spray solvent, or dampen the tip of a swab - all from one handy package.
• Only the Sticklers™ Fiber Optic Splice and Connector Cleaner is guaranteed to provide over 400 cleaning events from one pocket-sized bottle of liquid. This means the cost-per-cleaning is literally pennies.
• Only the Sticklers™ Fiber Optic Splice and Connector Cleaner is packaged in a "TravelSAFE™ " non-aerosol container that is spill-proof and not refillable, which eliminates an important source of contamination.

So, sure, you can buy cheaper cleaning products, but you won't get your end-faces consistently as clean as quickly. And dirty end-faces simply don't work.

Or you can spend more money on fancy tools, "cube" cleaners, clever cartridge-style wipes or messy aerosol sprays, and still not get your end-faces clean.

The Sticklers™ products are engineered as a complete cleaning system - the wipes, the CleanStixx™ and the cleaning fluid - to deliver just the right combination of packaging and tooling that delivers the best possible result at the lowest possible cost-per-cleaning.
