Pioneered by Future Fibres since 1998, Fibrelite cables are made from synthetic fibers, providing lightweight and flexible cables for yachts of all sizes.
Technology
Fibrelite cables are manufactured using a continuous winding process of synthetic unidirectional fibres around two spools that range between Aramid, SK99 and PBO tailored to a specific length and stiffness. This results in a lightweight rigging solution that is suitable for applications such as strops.
Each cable is designed with the minimum fiber content required to achieve a specific stiffness and strength at the end terminals resulting in zero extra weight.
Fibrelite cables are manufactured with all the synthetic fibres tightly packed and consolidated into a round cross-section and wrapped in a thin braided cover, resulting in the smallest possible diameter.
Fibrelite stays can be coiled, enabling full fabrication in the factory and efficient delivery of the finished product to customers worldwide. This ensures greater quality control, precision, and faster installation.
Fibrelite cables have a fixed lifespan and should be fully replaced after a designated period. The recommended lifespan varies depending on the specific application.
fibrelite is a DNV GL approved product
Applications
Fibrelite cables are suitable for yachts of all sizes that require flexible stays such as forestay strops.
