Naval & Marine Shipboard Cables

UKB is a leading manufacturer and supplier of Naval & Marine Shipboard Cables

UKB Electronics manufactures high-performance Naval & Marine Shipboard Cables designed to operate flawlessly in the confined and challenging environments of ships, submarines, and offshore platforms. Our cables meet stringent defence (JSS) and international marine (IEC 60092) specifications, ensuring total reliability for mission-critical applications for India’s naval and commercial shipping sectors.

Product Anatomy

Naval and marine cables are engineered to be lightweight, compact, and exceptionally safe. They are constructed with tinned copper conductors for superior corrosion resistance in saline environments. The insulation and sheathing typically use advanced Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH) fire-retardant compounds to ensure safety in the enclosed spaces aboard a vessel. Many designs also include a metallic braid for electromagnetic screening and added mechanical strength.

Key Features & Customisation Options

Standards Compliance: Manufactured to IEC 60092, JSS 51034, NES, and other marine/naval standards.
Mission-Critical Fire Safety: Low Smoke Zero Halogen (LSZH), flame-retardant, and fire-resistant options available.
Lightweight & Compact: Optimized design to save critical space and weight on vessels.
Extreme Durability: High resistance to oil, chemicals, moisture, and salt corrosion.
Applications: Used for propulsion systems, navigation, communications, weapon systems, and onboard power circuits.

Integrated Manufacturing Capabilities

The reliability of our marine cables is ensured by our control over key manufacturing stages:

Specialized LSZH Compounding: Our ability to formulate specialized Low Smoke Zero Halogen compounds in-house is critical, ensuring we meet the strictest fire safety standards for confined spaces.
In-house Wire Tinning: We manage the tinning of copper conductors, providing the superior corrosion resistance essential for a long service life in a saline marine environment.
Precision Braiding & Screening: Our automated braiding lines apply copper wire braids for effective electromagnetic screening and mechanical protection, vital for sensitive onboard electronics.
