• If the fiber has to pass through a metallic board hole, the hole must have a sleek and fully filleted
surface (the filleting radius must be not less than 2 mm). When passing through a metallic board
hole or bending along the acute side of mechanical parts, the fiber must wear jackets or cushions.
• Insert and remove a plug with care. Never exert a fierce force to the fiber or plug; otherwise the
plug might be damaged or the fiber might be broken. Never pull, press or extrude the fiber fiercely.
For the allowed maximum tensile load and crush load, see Table 89.
