Astute Ellis secures repeat cleat deal
Emperor cable cleats from Ellis will be installed in the first five of the Ministry of Defence’s new generation of Astute-class nuclear powered submarines after BAE Systems confirmed a repeat specification for the fifth boat in the fleet.
The North Yorkshire-based manufacturer received its first order from BAE Systems Maritime - Submarines back in 2003, with the BAE site in Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria taking delivery of the latest order just last month.
Throughout the duration of the project Ellis has supplied bespoke two, four, six and nine-way versions of its Emperor cleats, a standard trefoil version, and its Protect cable straps.
The Astute-class is the latest class of nuclear-powered Royal Navy submarines, which sets a new standard in terms of weapons load, communication facilities and stealth.
