Abstract

A bundle of multiglass fibers are assembled within an outer glass tube. An intermediate glass structure is interposed between the bundle of multifibers and the outer glass tube. The intermediate glass structure has a softening temperature within the range of minus 5% and plus 15% of the softening temperature of the multifibers and less than the softening temperature of the outer glass tube. The assembly is heated and the outer glass tube is pressurized from the outside to produce a uniform compressive force for fusing the multifibers and the intermediate glass structure around the multifibers. The intermediate glass structure may include a glass tube, multiple layers of glass fibers or an inner layer of glass fibers surrounded by a glass tube.
