LIROS D-Pro Static Article 01504 is produced from Dyneema® DM20, finished with the LIROS Coating System for enhanced durability and grip
LIROS engineered synthetic fibre line making composite rigging practicable for the dinghy and small sailboat sailor.
This cost effective alternative to wire is specified by matching the stretch of the replacement fibre line to the working stretch of the stainless steel wire.
Fibre rigging will therefore be a larger diameter than the wire it replaces, but it will still save considerable weight aloft.
By matching the stretch factor, the replacement fibre rigging will be anywhere between 2 and 5 times stronger than the stainless steel wire that it replaces.
A synthetic rig should never be specified by matching the breaking strain of the fibre to the wire that it replaces because this will result in too much stretch.
LIROS D-Pro Static is available with a full range of professional spliced finishes from the Jimmy Green Rigging Team or in 50 metre/100 metre lengths at advantageous rates
