Abstract:
A method and apparatus for securing enlongate members (24, 28) of generally cylindrical form in end-to-end relationship, particularily for forming an optic fiber splice (30). Optic fibers are spliced by pressing a form, preferably an optic fiber of the same diameter as those to be spliced, into a deformable body (8) to create a groove for receiving the ends of the optic fibers in close alignment. To secure the optic fibers, an index matching adhesive is cured by UV irradiation through a glass cover (20) plate bonded to the deformable body.
