DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF SUBMARINE HULL FITTINGS.

Abstract

A new series of submarine hull fittings has been designed, built, and tested for use with RG-11A/U, RG-293/U, RG-295/U, and RG-297/U radio frequency coaxial cables. Included in the series are external plugs, hull feed-thru adapters, baseplate feed-thru adapters, and internal plugs. The external plugs are of a unique design which permits quick, simple, reliable, uniform field assemblies with only rudimentary tools. All hull feed-thru adapters assembly with standard submarine 2.6 in. hull inserts. Two models of each fitting were constructed. All fittings were tested to 3000 psi. Complete electrical and environmental test data, photographs, drawings, and illustrated assembly instructions are included. (Author)
