    Hi Guys,

    Do any of you have written procedures to pot a Kevlar Umbilical cable into the cone at the drum end?

    I’m currently planning to write up one, so if you guys have any it would be of great help. Many thanks.

    Used to pot the kevlar in the termination at the vehicle side.
    We had 1-2 meter length of kevlar. Made a knot at the end. Between the knot and the termination we placed a sprocket inside the kevlar bundle. This sprocket was used to spread the strings of kevlar equally.
    Everything was mounted vertically for potting by hanging the kevlar-knot on a hook. Because of the weight you get some tension on the kevlar.
    Now every was ready for potting with Wire Lock.
