Filière Dy-Protec®, High-Performance Textile Guardrails

Range: Yachting & Custom Engineering "The alliance of fine watchmaking and marine safety"

Concept description: The Dy-Protec® sheathed textile spinneret redefines the concept of guardrails for prestige yachts and top-of-the-range sailing boats. Designed to replace traditional stainless-steel cable, it provides a high-level aesthetic component without compromising on safety. This complete system offers perfectly controlled elongation and a fluid feel, transforming an essential safety element into an exceptional piece of rigging.

Textile Engineering & Durability:

  • Technological core: A core of pre-stretched and sized Dyneema® (SK78 / SK99) fibers, guaranteeing exceptional strength and virtually zero elongation under guard tension.

  • Dy-Protec® shield: A special protective sheath offering superior resistance to abrasion and UV rays, while ensuring a finished appearance worthy of the finest shipyards.

  • Installation & Adjustment: A system designed with textile endings and integrated adjusters for quick installation and "hand" tension adjustment, with no need for complex tools.

Highlights & Benefits :

  • Ergonomics & Comfort: Gentler on hands and sails than steel cable; never scratches structures or oxidizes.

  • Featherweight: Drastically reduces top weight, improving vessel stability.

  • Simplified maintenance: No specific maintenance required; visual inspection facilitated by the quality of the Dy-Protec® sheathing.

  • Custom Aesthetics: A sleek design that perfectly matches the lines of modern and classic yachts.

Specifications & Compliance

The use of textiles for safety lines meets strict normative requirements to guarantee crew protection:

  • ISO 15085: Compliance with height and strength requirements for fall protection devices.

  • World Sailing Regulations (OSR): Use of high-modulus fibers (Dyneema®) authorized for racing and cruising, respecting recommended safety diameters.

  • Directive 2013/53/EU: Product designed to withstand high dynamic loads in compliance with European yachting standards.

Lab Innovation Advice

  • Creep control. Thanks to the use of SK99 fibers, our dies eliminate creep over the long term. Your installation stays taut and safe season after season, without the need for constant re-tensioning.

Owner's testimonial

"As soon as I touched these dies, I was impressed by the quality. It's a work of rare precision. Day-to-day adjustment is child's play, and the tension remains perfect. No more uncontrolled stretching; with Nodus Factory, the die stays taut, which is a real guarantee of safety." > - Umberto, Owner of the sailboat Bally.
