ABSTRACT:
An optical fibre assembly (10) for transmitting high energy laser radiation comprises a tubular moulded plastics handle (1) having a tubular metallic termination (2) for engagement with a laser radiation source. The other end of handle (1) is connected by a heat shrunk plastics sleeve (6) to a length of plastics tubing (4) the distal end of which incorporates an end formation (5), and a single plastics coated glass cored optical fibre (3) extends through the interior of termination (2), handle (1), plastics tube (4) and termination (5). The assembly (10) is easy and inexpensive to manufacture because of the simplicity of components and assembly thereof and enables the assembly (10) to be used on a once-and-for-all basis, i.e., assembly (10) is disposable.
