20 Metres Length Fibre Optic Cable 0.5mm Diameter Light Guide Silica Core End Glow for Model Craft Decoration DIY

High-quality materials, environmentally friendly, exquisite craftsmanship, safe, reliable and durable, long service life, complete specifications, quick installation and simple use, and better cost performance.

This is very versatile stuff, you simply shine light in at one end & it comes out the other, so it can be used in models, decorations, lighting effects & all sorts of other things.

The material is a type of plastic & so it can be cut easily with a sharp knife (even a pair of scissors or wire cutters at a push)  .

The light-emitting principle: 
the fiber optic cable itself is transparent and does not emit light, but relies on the two ends plus the LED spotlight to emit light, which is transparent and not blinding. The colour is based on the colour of the LED light source, when not on the light is transparent

Tips:

  1. To get the best light output make sure that the ends of the fibre are cut cleanly & square.
  2. To get points of light along the length of the fibre, simply nick it with a file, the deeper the cut, the more light will come out - be careful as this will weaken the fibre.
  3. This fibre is very flexible & will happily bend to a radius of about 20x its diameter i.e. for a 1.0mm fibre it will bent to a radius of 20mm, tighter bends are possible, however the fibre may become permanently bent (not a problem for a permanent installation) although with very tight bends there will be some light lost through the sides of the fibre at the bend. If you need to make a tight bend it is advisable to warm the fibre, which will make it more flexible.
  4. LEDs make ideal light sources. A piece of heatshrink sleeve is ideal to hold the fibre in place at the end of the LED - although you can get away with nothing more sophisticated than a piece of sticky tape!
