Catalog excerpts

... the true sailcloth producer DIMENSION-POLYANT’s FLEX ® line stands for “Fill Laminate Extra X”. The FLEX® range of fabrics is suited to racing and cruising sails. Foundations of all FLEX ® laminate constructions are strong fill and warp yarns. Additional 20° and 30° “Double X” patterns from the fill absorb multiple load situations. Thanks to its novel construction, FLEX ® handles strain in six different directions, resulting in unprecedented shape retention characteristics. In addition to primary loads, off-angle loads in clew, head and tack areas, mid leech and luff are catered for. FLEX ® will also absorb those dynamic loads that occur during sailing and enables excellent shape control. FLEX ® styles are crosscut fabrics and available with several fibre densities which can be combined in a sail in accordance with the expected load situation. FLEX ® ’s firmly locked-up fiber matrix guarantees long performance life and superior durability.
