Fiber In Metal Tube

Fibercore provides fiber in metal tubes (FIMTs) in different sizes, wall thickness and metal types. FIMTs are used in a variety of applications due to the hermeticity of the tube, strength, crush resistance, corrosion resistance and fiber density. Some of these applications include downhole fiber optic cables, logging cables, power cables, cryogenic applications, industrial monitoring, subsea cables and many more.
