Experiments on development of internal stress in fibers by cladding borosilicate glass with 96% silica glass are reported. The axial compression in the cladding, determined photo‐elastically, agreed well with the increased strength determined in axial tension fracture experiments. In turn, these results agreed well with the axial compressive stress predicted by analysis when proper allowance was made for stresses which can develop when the core is fluid and the cladding rigid.
