. Low Weight In yacht design, the key driver of improved performance has been ever lighter, stiffer, structures. One of the final areas where ultra-light but stiff materials have not progressed to any significant extent has been in standing rigging. OYS's new PBO (Zylon) rope with Titanium composite

provides an innovative composite termination design for ?standard? parallel core ropes. This means that the assembly can be made to any length, anytime, anywhere. A qualified and trained rigger can now assemble PBO stays to any length and incorporate any standard end fitting. A major bonus

Choosing NAVTEC PBO Cable Size With fiber rigging systems it has always been difficult to apply a size selection standard to cover every case. There are basically two ways of selecting a PBO cable size for your application. The first and more commonly used selection method is based on the stiffness

encounter: - If working Load is less than 25% of the PBO cable rated strength, we recommend changing the cable following 26,000-30,000 miles, with a thorough inspection following 3 years of usage if the mileage has not been obtained during that time. - If working Load is more than 25% (but less than 35

-rig application. NAVTEC has tailored its PBO cable sizes to be very close, if not exact stretch equivalents of standard Nitronic 50 rod rigging sizes, while being 1/4 the weight of rod and1 1/2 times stronger.
