Tech/Engineering - Telecom(munications) / fiber optic cables
English term or phrase: counter-helically
dans la phrase : "Polyester yarn binders are applied **counter-helically** with sufficient tension to secure each buffer tube layer to the dielectric central member without crushing the buffer tubes."
