Description

Re-designed Dyneema® Core

The new D2 Club product, however, lies in its Dyneema SK75 blended core. The combination of Dyneema and polypropylene provide the re-engineered rope with qualities that make it simple for sailors to switch from polyester doublebraid and reap significant performance and handling advantages.The core redesign on the D2 Club results in a much lighter overall weight versus the polyester doublebraid with the option to strip the cover for further weight reduction. The core is treated with Armorcoat to protect and preserve its integrity and extend the longevity of the rope while also allowing for easy splicing and tapering. Another advantage of the new D2 Club construction is much lower elongation compared to polyester doublebraid, meaning fewer sail adjustments.A principal component of many Marlow innovations, Dyneema is an engineered material known as the world’s strongest, lightest fiber – 15 times stronger than steel yet floats on water. Its hydrophobic properties prevent water absorption, so ropes maintain their light weight even when wet. Dyneema’s chemical and UV resistant properties mean the new D2 Club performs well in all kinds of weather.
