Floating ROV Subsea Copper Core Cable Lightweight With PUR Foam Sheath Material
High-Performance Floating Cable for Underwater Robotics
This specialized floating cable for underwater robots features a highly wear-resistant layer designed for demanding subsea operations in depths ranging from hundreds to thousands of meters.
Technical Background
Underwater engineering operations require robust cables for power transmission and signal control. Standard cables face significant challenges in these environments:
- Increased insulation layers add substantial weight
- Inability to float increases drag on mobile equipment
- Submerged cables are vulnerable to damage from marine life and rocks
- Poor visibility makes damage detection difficult
Our floating cable solution addresses these challenges with excellent flexibility, mechanical strength, and superior water-blocking performance. The elastomeric polyurethane material provides exceptional wear resistance, maintains flexibility at low temperatures, and offers stable compressive resistance.

The cable utilizes special flexible sheath material (customer-selectable colors) with a bending life exceeding 6 million cycles without sheath breakage.
Key performance characteristics include exceptional flexibility, wear resistance, oil resistance, acid and alkali resistance, tensile strength, superior waterproof properties, and excellent anti-aging performance. The cable's specific gravity is engineered to be infinitely close to that of water, enabling it to float on the surface.
