A cable float (or cable buoy) is a flotation device designed to support, suspend, or protect underwater cables in marine, freshwater, or other submerged environments. These floats prevent cables from sinking, reduce stress, and help maintain optimal positioning.
1. Material: Outer Surface:100%Polyethylene (PE): Lightweight, cost-effective, chemical-resistant Inner material:100%Polyurethane (PU): Durable, abrasion-resistant, long lifespan.
2. Applicatoin: Offshore Energy: Floating wind farm cables, submarine power lines.
Oil & Gas: Support for umbilicals, seismic cables.
Aquaculture: Buoying power cables for fish farms.
Scientific Instruments: Suspending sensors or underwater drones.
Temporary Setups: Event lighting, military operations.
3. Size: OEM.
1.Superior Performance:
·Excellent Flexibility & Impact Resistance: Ideal for open sea constructions and harsh environments.
·High Corrosion Resistance: Outperforms steel floaters with a working life up to 3 times longer.
2.Ease of Installation & Handling:
·Two-Half Design: Allows quick and easy assembly.
·Lightweight & Portable: Reduces transportation and installation costs.
3.Customizable Design:
·Adaptable Sizes: Available in various dimensions to fit different pipeline diameters.
·Tailored Solutions: Can be customized to meet specific project needs.
4.Cost-Effectiveness:
·Lower Initial Costs: More affordable than steel floaters.
·Reduced Maintenance: Longer lifespan and minimal upkeep result in significant cost savings over time.
