Tri-Tonics BF-A-36X494 Bifurcated Fiber Optic Cable 36" Stainless Jacket
The Tri-Tonics BF-A-36X494 is a bifurcated (Y-configuration) fiber optic light guide cable designed for microscope and precision optical illumination applications. The cable splits from a single common end into two output legs, each terminated with a stainless steel barrel tip that houses a glass fiber bundle. The entire length is protected by a flexible stainless steel coiled jacket for durability and bend protection.

Applications
Bifurcated fiber optic light guides like the Tri-Tonics BF-A-36X494 are standard accessories for stereo and inspection microscopes, machine vision systems, and industrial optical inspection setups where controlled, directed illumination is needed. The Y-split configuration allows a single fiber optic illuminator or light source to deliver light to two separate points simultaneously — useful for even illumination of a specimen from two angles, or for splitting illumination between two adjacent work areas. Tri-Tonics (also known as Tri-Tronics) is a Florida-based manufacturer with a long history of producing fiber optic light guides and photoelectric sensing equipment for industrial and scientific use. These cables are compatible with a wide range of fiber optic illuminators that accept the standard barrel-tip format, and are commonly used in quality control, electronics inspection, biological specimen viewing, and similar precision applications.
This Tri-Tonics BF-A-36X494 Bifurcated Fiber Optic Cable has been inspected and is in good used condition. The stainless steel coiled jacket shows light surface wear consistent with normal use, and the label at the bifurcation junction shows some yellowing and age wear as visible in the photos. Both barrel tip ends appear intact with the glass fiber bundle faces visible and undamaged. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
