Adhesive base fibre saddles are cable management clips specifically designed to support and route delicate fibre optic cables using a self-adhesive mounting base rather than screws or push-fit fixings. They provide a secure, non-invasive method of organising fibre cables while helping to maintain correct bend radius and protecting against physical damage and signal-degrading stress.
What are adhesive base fibre saddles?
Adhesive base fibre saddles feature a smooth curved saddle profile that gently cradles fibre optic cables. This flexible, supportive design helps to prevent crushing, sharp bends and abrasion which can impair fibre performance. The integrated pressure-sensitive adhesive pad allows the saddle to be fixed firmly to clean, smooth surfaces such as plastic panels, metal enclosures and painted housings.
Because no drilling is required, these saddles are ideal for sensitive environments and finished equipment where mechanical fixings could damage components or compromise enclosures. Installation is fast, clean and tool-free, making them well suited to both permanent installations and retrofit projects.
Adhesive base fibre saddles may also be referred to as adhesive fibre clips, stick-on fibre supports, self-adhesive fibre cable saddles or fibre optic cable guides. These terms are commonly used across telecommunications and data infrastructure industries.
Typical applications
Adhesive base fibre saddles are widely used in telecommunications equipment, data cabinets and server centres to organise and support fibre optic patch leads and internal routing.
Commonly fitted within fibre distribution boxes, control panels and electronic enclosures where accurate routing and physical protection of fibre cables is essential.
Their gentle support and vibration-damping properties make them suitable for environments where fibre cables must flex slightly without damage, while remaining securely guided and protected.
Key features and benefits
Tool-free installation without drilling or surface damage.
The smooth curved profile supports delicate fibre optic cables while helping to maintain correct bend radius and reduce mechanical stress.
Their flexible saddle design helps protect fibres from crushing, abrasion and excessive movement.
The self-adhesive base allows fast positioning inside cabinets and enclosures, making them ideal for sensitive installations and retrofit applications.
