ABSTRACT:
A shipping container for fiber optic coils includes a pair of semicircular ody elements forming a generally circular body providing a circular chamber and having axially and outwardly extending flanges abutting along their mating edges thereof and radially extending projections at their axial ends. A pair of end caps have a cylindrical sidewall portion abutting the axial ends of the circular body, an end wall spaced therefrom, and radially extending projections aligned with those of the body. Fastening elements secure the flanges and projections in assembly. The container may be assembled about a coil supported on a winding mandrel by placing the two elements thereabout and securing the flanges to retain the coil therewithin. The body and coil may be removed from the winding mandrel and the end caps placed thereon. To remove the coil, one end cap is removed and the container aligned with the coil mounting fixture; the other cap is then removed and the coil moved outwardly of the body.
