LIROS Dynamic Plus Article 02004 Cruising Dyneema SK78 - the preferred choice for committed cruising/racing when budget restraints don't allow for LIROS Racer Article 02001.

Cover: Close Weave 32plait 100% Polyester (8mm 24plait) smooth construction
Core: 12 strand plaited Dyneema® SK78 with additional inner plait construction - LIROS-Heat-Stretch-System

Regatta Performance, hard wearing, low stretch sheet or control line for competitive cruising sailors - working load stretch <2%

The Jimmy Green Rigging Team are happy to splice your existing shackles onto new lines.

LIROS Dynamic Plus - slightly thinner Dyneema core than LIROS Racer Dyneema with an extra inner cover plait to compensate - the result is a solid round construction with excellent firm shape retention under load e.g. around sheaves and winches

Diameters and Colours:
8mm, 10mm, 12mm - full colour natural beige with no LIROS marker yarn

LIROS Classic Dynamic Plus Positive Points:

  • Excellent smooth handling
  • Non kinking, balanced braiding
  • Excellent holding power in cleats and clutches
  • Good Grip around winches
  • Solid shape retention around winches - firm, compact braid construction doesn't flatten
  • Runs freely through block and sheaves
  • Spliceable - advanced core dependent splice
  • Low stretch - LIROS-Heat-Stretch-System

LIROS-Heat-Stretch-System - unique LIROS pre-stretching process, calibrated under exacting temperature and tension conditions, designed to minimise stretch and enhance performance

N.B. The inner cover plait is not load bearing and a certain amount is removed as part of the core dependent splice resulting in a reduced diameter over a short length. Although it looks thin, the strength of the splice and the rope is not compromised.

The Polyester cover can be permanently removed to produce a cover stripped Dyneema core only loop splice.
Snapshackles can then be retrofitted/changed over, attached using a simple a cow hitch - pass the loop through the eye of the shackle, over the top and back down to the rope end.
