Cable Protection Systems
Custom Parts & Systems
Classic Part Supplier

Need assistance to innovate, for design and analysis , test or evaluate cable protection systems?

In a Catch-22 scenario, with limited resources, client or Senior Management looking for an immediate solution, want to make contact with an engineering design speciailist, no in-house experience, stagnated innovation, unable to determine how to out-perform the competition (cost, reliability, delivery or quality), limited budget, looking for options to get a competitive edge through cost reduction, material usage, supplier selection, or more environmentally friendly sourcing (including reshoring to UK or Europe) ?

Or maybe in-service products are showing signs of failing.

Let us help you boost your engineering design & manufacturing capabilities.

CPS22 is a family-owned business which provides a one-stop shop to provide a service to design and manufacture parts. Our experience range includes cable protection systems, infrastructure (monopiles, j-tubes, caissons or substations), subsea materials or  custom parts manufacture or classic vehicle parts. To complete our engineering design projects we have Inventor 2025 Professional Product design & manufacturing software allowing quick preparation of 3D concepts, 3D manufacturing models, 2D drawings, dynamic simulation, Finite Element Analysis, hand calculations and tolerance analysis. 

We also have access to a reliable high-quality local manufacturing supply chain, worthwhile with genuine people with whom we believe in building long-term relationships and working through any issues.

We are only limited by the Laws of Physics, Chemistry, Geoscience and the unpredictability of nature.

Aspects of my varied and significant work experience


Cable Protection System Innovation, Design, Analysis, Prototypes, Testing, Failure Investigations.

I have tested a vast array of CPS configurations to destruction and am aware of most of the failure modes which are now in proliferation. My preference is to get in at the early stages of the project, as most of the 'mistakes' are made when the Project Teams are purely looking at cost and track record. No-one wants to highlight their failures, but I have seen most of them, so no need to worry about Confidentiality, what I see and learn stays with me and why you will not find examples of my CPS observations and experiences in the public domain.

I can reverse engineer most parts and systems. 
More importantly, I can use the latest materials,  processing and production techniques to minimise corrosion, UV degradation and maximise the quality.

I have designed, tested and seen parts after failure during service, in the terresterial, offshore, topside and subsea sectors.

Parts can be supplied to your business or direct to individuals.

CPS22 can supply CNC machined parts from bar stock, castings or forgings. Some parts can now be 3D printed. Materials we have worked with include, brass, nickel, chrome, steel, stainless steel, super duplex, inconel, aluminium, rubber, high performance polymers (compression & injection mouldings and open / vacuum cast), and carbon fibre. This includes parts for steering systems, suspension, driving instrumentation, engines, aluminium & steel welded assemblies, baffles, ducts, gaiters, gears, housings, superchargers, linkages, 'jewellery' (handles, mirrors, lights, levers, springs, caps, guides, mechanisms, bezels, seals, bump stops and switches).
