UG: Mono Buoyancy Units (Enclosed)
Our enclosed Mono Buoyancy Units (MBUs) deliver industry-leading efficiency in applications such as the laying of steel or HDPE pipelines – and in general support work at or near the surface. Because they’re attached to the load via a single point of connection, they require significantly less rigging time than multi-attachment alternatives Its structural internal connecting strop between each end of the MBU makes it possible to lift through or moor onto Unique Group’s MBUs – a capability which sets us apart from other products on the market.
Features

connection, can be lifted via this point, can even be moored
