Bend Restrictor<\/h1><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>Reliable Bend Restrictors for Static Load Protection on Subsea Cables<\/h2><\/div>A bend restrictor (BR) is used where the loads on a cable (umbilical\/flow line) are static rather than dynamic (a bend stiffener is more suited for this latter).<\/strong><\/p>\nOur bend restrictors comprise a number of interlocking elements that, when subjected to an external load, articulate and lock together to form a smooth curved radius. This locking radius is designed to be equal to, or greater than, the cable\u2019s minimum bend radius.<\/p>\n
Our split design is easy to install both onshore and offshore. It also allows bend restrictor installation after cable termination. Being almost neutrally buoyant in water, it eliminates any self-weight load on the cable.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
