Description
In OMC’s 48&96F Stranded Loose Tube Double Sheath Armored Cable (GYFTZY53) cable, A FRP &PE cushion layer(while need)is located in the center of core as a metallic strength member. Single-mode/multimode Fiber are positioned in the loose tube, which is made of PBT materials and filled with filling compound. The loose tube is covered with water blocking Yarn+ thin polyethylene (PE) inner sheath, There is a Corrugated steel tape covered on the inner PE sheath and A thick PE sheath covered on Corrugated steel tape to guarantee the compactness and longitudinal water-blocking performance.
