Robline’s Sirius Gripis sheet is stable on winches
Justin Jones set up Robline UK at the end of last year with the aim of sharing his technical knowledge with customers and providing alternative good quality rope solutions.
Among the new products on offer is the Sirius Gripis sheet, developed to be pleasant to grab but also stable on winches.
The rope is particularly suitable for Spinlock clutches however is also suitable as a sheet for aggressive winches.
It has a polyester core to minimise stretch and a polyester / polyester soft cover.
Coppa Pro is a grip maximised rope, optimised for hand-use, however also resistant in the aggressive rachet blocks.
Minimal stretch
The sheet is suitable for extreme use such as a gennaker sheet on a Nacra 17, however its compact braiding and minimal stretch make it very versatile explained Justin.
The rope has a Dyneema SK99 core and a cover consisting of PBO, Dyneema and polyester soft.
Robline’s Lazyjack Polybraid was developed for the use in lazyjack systems.
“It is slippery enough to get the sail easily into the lazybag, concurrently is it easy to splice and resistant against environmental influences,” said Justin.
Another new line from Robline is Flat Mooring, a mooring line with a newly developed cover construction.
“The line spreads the friction energy on a bigger area while being at the same time extremely soft and handy,” added Justin.
The rope is constructed from polyester.
