Another Oddball Aircraft Cable Application

Aug 31, 2022 07:45 AM

If I asked you to name 100 places you would expect to find aircraft cable, I am pretty sure that most of you would not say, "inside of a collapsable bladder intended to facilitate the transport of liquids to and from some of the least accessable places on the planet."

And for those of you who did think that, well you are just too smart...

IMG00014 20100422 1031Here is a picture of just that style of bladder, which can be transported in any manner of ways, from truck to helicopter to cargo plane. Holding upwards of 500 gallons of liquid, they collapse to nearly flat when empty and make transport to an from where they are needed much more practical than a solid tank of similar capacity. Cables are used to provide the strength need to keep the walls from expanding and bursting.

Another solution brought to you by the amazing versatility of aircraft cable!
