Abstract
The invention concerns a method for re-cladding an optical fiber (10) at least partly stripped over part of its length (16). The invention is characterised in that it comprises steps which consist in: placing a flexible tube (20) on the zone (16) of stripped fiber, injecting a polymer material (40) into the tube (20), through an axial end thereof, and polymerising the injected material (40) so that it adheres to the outer surface of the zone (16) of stripped fiber and to the inner surface of the tube (20), over the entire length of the tube (20). The invention also concerns the resulting optical fibers.
