FIBERCON® PRO WARP TECH

Product catalog summary

Introduction to Fibercon® Pro Warp Tech: The Fibercon® Pro Warp Tech range is a new addition to Contender's line of woven polyester sailcloth, designed specifically for radial applications. It features a unique weaving technology that combines uncrimped heavy warp yarns with finer denier warp and fill yarns, resulting in a tight and balanced weave. This construction provides low warp stretch while maintaining good bias stability and fill strength.

Stabilization and Durability: The Warp Tech fabric is stabilized with a newly developed PU Coating, ensuring high bias stability over a long working life. It is ideal for racer-cruisers who seek durability without sacrificing performance.

Product Specifications: The Warp Tech range includes various styles with different constructions and weights, all with a width of 145 cm. The styles range from 6.88 oz. to 9.88 oz., with varying warp and fill yarn specifications.

Applications: The fabric is suitable for different boat lengths and sail types. For example, boats between 25-30 ft. can use the 6.88 oz. fabric for mainsails, while larger boats up to 42 ft. can use the 9.88 oz. fabric.

Comparative Features: The Warp Tech fabrics are evaluated based on weaving density, shape retention, UV endurance, and lifespan, with ratings provided for each style.
