Advanced materials for unrivalled quality
Manufactured from high-tech fibers such as Dyneema®, Vectran®, Technora®, Kevlar® or PES® Tech, these connectors benefit from advances in space, aeronautics and ocean racing.
French manufacturing and rigorous certification
Proud of our expertise, we design and manufacture all our textile connectors in France. Their quality is attested by Bureau Veritas certification, guaranteeing their compliance with the most stringent safety and reliability standards.
Optimized durability for extended use
The service life of textile connectors depends on workload. Reasonable use at 50% of their breaking load guarantees long service life. Regular visual inspections during rigging ensure that they are in good condition. In the event of severe linting, replacement or repair is recommended. Our protective coatings give them a new lease of life.
Comprehensive technical information for an informed choice
Detailed tables show the maximum recommended web surfaces, lengths and breaking loads for each connector. When used at 25% of breaking load, their service life is double that of a stainless steel shackle used at 50% of its breaking load.
