Performance line :ropes for fast cruisers and club racers

Dyneema® SK78 + PU
This Line of ropes differs from the previous version Dyneema® SK78 + HPS + PU to the lack of the HPS treatment, which means that there is no thermic pre-stretching under load. This makes the rope more manageable, as the core is more supple. It has a slightly different breaking load and elongation in comparison with DYN 78 + HPS + PU, because the braid is not settled (it means that the differences of tensions between fibers are not adjusted). However, its general features remain at a high level, making this rope affordable to boats and crews of a less extreme technical level.

Dyneema® SK78
These ropes are made with the same quantity of Dyneema® SK78 and the same parameters of construction as the previous versions, but have not undergone any type of treatment. This makes them soft, while maintaining all the characteristics of Dyneema® SK78 with slightly lower performance. Given the absence of treatment, it is not advisable to use the rope without a cover. Particularly suitable for ropes when maximum handling over time is required.

Vectran® + PU
The main feature of the Vectran® fiber is having a near zero creep if used under loads up to 50% of the breaking load. Vectran® braids are ideal when used under static loads, e.g. as main sail and genoa halyards, as well as for steering line systems and afterguys. But it’s important to remember that the fibre is not resistant to UV rays and therefore it isn’t particularly suitable to be used without cover, unless in specific cases protected from the light or if replacements are constantly planned.
