BALL-JOINT™ Articulation Adapter

BALL-JOINT Tow Point Adapter Provides Articulation at the Cable Termination

This non-rotating adapter reduces or eliminates bending at the cable attachment point. It extends the working life of your cable system and lowers the expense of repair and downtime. Its unique design makes installation on cables fast and easy. After assembly, the ball is restricted from rotation relative to the housing but will articulate omnidirectionally up to 30 degrees off-axis. Its compact design makes it ideal for towed or suspended instrumentation platforms and remotely operated vehicles.

 

Key Features:

  • Unique design makes installation on cables fast and easy. After assembly, the ball is restricted from rotation relative to the housing but will articulate omni-directionally up to 30 degrees off axis.
  • Designed for harsh undersea environments, the BALL-JOINT Tow Point Adaptor is fabricated of corrosion resistant metals such as Nitronic® 50, INCONEL® 625, aluminum nickel bronze, titanium, and 316 stainless steel for compatibility with your cable system and mission.
  • BALL-JOINT Tow Point Adaptors are designed for use with PMI’s EVERGRIP, DYNA-GRIP, and FARMOR mechanical terminations and the EVERFLEX Bending Strain Relief.
