Elmeridge Cables Limited have been a leader in the production and distribution of custom-made cables since 1987; that’s almost 40 years of special cable design, production, sales, and distribution, combining full technical support and total professionalism with years of expertise. With our commitment to quality and innovation, you can ask Elmeridge to deliver the most complex or simplest bespoke cable solution.
For almost four decades, Elmeridge have been designing, producing and distributing low-voltage custom-made cables for the following sectors and industries, including:
Underwater Marine & Offshore Pumps & Sensors;
Oil & Gas;
Pipes & Drains CCTV Pushrod and Crawler Cables;
Fish Farming & Fisheries;
Medical & Science;
Railways & Trams;
Instrumentation & Control;
High Temperature & Thermocouple;
Aerostat (TARS) & Drones.
We have supplied many underwater Marine and Offshore companies with our ‘Supreme Polyurethane’, which is Hydrolysis, UV, and abrasion-resistant. This compound is incredibly tough yet flexible, and it can be ordered in various colours.
Here are a few examples of special projects which we have been able to work on over recent years:
Elmeridge were able to supply the Spanish Navy with a 40-tonne breaking strain cable with the use of Kevlar aramidic yarn and two contra-helically wound layers of Nitronic 50 steel wire armour.
Our pushrod cables for the Pipes & Drains sector have proved to be the toughest on the market today. With our rod cables in various sizes being pushed further than any others. We have worked in this sector for over 30 years supplying some of the top companies in the UK.
Elmeridge were asked to supply various cables over the years to Formula 1, using compounds such as Hytrel for single core cables in many different colours. Their existing camera cables were breaking down through long term vibration, Elmeridge were able to provide a solution to prevent degradation by vibration.
Elmeridge have produced a single 5km length of buoyant fibreoptic cable with a breaking load of 750kg, to view the condition of the culverts under London.
Elmeridge were asked to produce a 36-core umbilical cable for a ship’s radar system that could be flexed when traveling under bridges, without damaging the system and signal.
Elmeridge have been asked to produce two silicone cables for a medical company, the final solution was to place both cables together and produce one cable to minimize the diameter and to be as flexible as possible.
Elmeridge can supply many different types of Sensor Cables, some of which have nylon vent tubes inside of various sizes.
Elmeridge had a great opportunity at the end of 2019/2020 to work with the British Antarctic Survey (BAS), supplying 8,000mtrs and 10,000mtrs of CTD (Conductivity Temperature and Depth) Cables for the RRS James Clark Ross and the RRS Sir David Attenborough.
A recent project for the Royal Air Force was to supply a high-grade circular copper braid with a clear PVC sheath. This braid was attached to the aircraft during refuelling to prevent a build-up of static electricity, reducing the fire hazard by grounding out the aircraft.
Elmeridge have produced more than 5,000 different types of special cables since 1987.
Our current lead times for production are approximately 8 to 10 weeks, depending on the specification and elements required.
