How flexible is a 2 mm polymer optical fiber?

The minimum bending radius of 2.7 mm polymer optical fibers with SMA connectors is 40 mm. The minimum bending radius of 2.2 mm polymer optical fibers with ST connectors is 25 mm. These values are valid for polymer optical fibers with more than 1m in length. For shorter POF lengths or special coatings (e.g. steel, uncoated, heat resistant POFs) please contact our customer support. Exceeding the minimum bending radius might damage or break the fiber.
