High strength polyester line A high strength, low stretch line with a patented parallel fiber core and a braided cover made from a blend of spun and filament polyester.

Benefits: The strongest and lowest stretch polyester line available. Excellent value - an ideal replacement for wire halyards.

Applications:

  • Halyards
  • Spinnakers
  • Guys
  • Tensile 2,700#
  • STA-SET X has the least amount of stretch of any polyester line (30% less than a double braid). A bundle of parallel, high tenacity fibers is wrapped with a special fabric tape to create a firm, round core with maximum tensile translation. This is covered with a combination of filament and spun yarns to provide good grip and an easy hand.

    Choosing Your Halyard: Did you know that rope halyards are easier to handle and significantly lighter than wire halyards. Sta-Set X is an ideal replacement for wire halyards on cruising yachts. For race boats and large cruising yachts, consider T-900.
