Description
Armare Zero Twist Torsion Cable is a unique rope that gets its name from its exceptional rigidity, which sets it apart from what can be considered “normal” ropes. This rigidity comes from the cable’s no-torsion treatment on the cover, allowing the rope to transmit torque along its length. This makes it ideal for use in furling systems that require torsional loads to be distributed along the line or stay.
Armare’s Zero Twist Torsion Cable is specifically designed for performance race yachts and is suitable for both bottom-up and top-down furling systems.
Features of the Armare Zero Twist Torsion Cable:
– Rigid construction allowing for torque transmission along the rope
– Designed for high-performance race yachts with both bottom-up and top-down furling systems
– Core: Heat-set Vectran with polyurethane coating
– Cover: Polyester with no-torsion treatment
– Available in a variety of diameters ranging from 6mm to 18mm
