A common question from customers is: "Do your clip VBRs have a limited lifespan? How long do the clips last?
It's a great question and one that we are always happy to answer. When it comes to offshore environments, reliability and longevity are crucial, and compromising on durability isn't an option.
The Short Answer: Our Clips Don't Wear Out
Our boltless clip VBRs are designed for the long term. With no bolts, metal, or additional hardware, these clips provide a durable, hassle free solution. Many of our customers have used them in challenging subsea environments for years without a single report of failure or a need for replacement clips. This durability comes from the high abrasive polyurethane material, engineered to thrive in demanding conditions.
So, if you're wondering, "Will these clips hold up over time?" The answer is a confident yes.
Why Boltless Clip VBRs Are Built to Last
By eliminating metallic parts and bolts, we have addressed several common issues associated with traditional metallic VBRs: corrosion, longer installation times, and the need to source and maintain expensive hardware. Our polyurethane clip VBRs are not only built to last but also outperform traditional options, particularly in environments where metal components might fail.Less Hassle, More Efficiency
In offshore projects, reducing downtime and simplifying installation are key. That's why our clip VBRs are designed with efficiency in mind.
- No More Bolts = Lower Costs: Without metal hardware like bolts, installation becomes simpler, and project costs are reduced. This means savings on hardware purchase, transport, and maintenance
- No Rust: With no metal components, corrosion is no longer a concern.
- Easy Installation: Fewer parts mean quicker and easier installation, which can be a significant benefit for offshore teams
Real Results in the Field
Our boltless clip VBRs have been successfully implemented in numerous offshore projects. Whether it's protecting cables, risers, or umbilicals, they consistently perform well, even in harsh marine conditions. One customer recently shared how pleasantly surprised they were by the ease of installation compared to the old hardware heavy systems they had used previously.
