Product catalog summary

Overview: DIMENSION-POLYANT's GraphX® carbon laminates are designed for racing and cruising yachts, offering superior durability and performance. The laminates incorporate advanced fiber handling and lamination technology, making them a leading choice in the market.

Specifications: The GPL line utilizes high-strength carbon warp sheet fiber, Technora®Black base, and Technora®Black X-PLY® to create fabrics with exceptional resistance to flex and elongation. These materials are ideal for high-performance sails where strength is critical.

Product Variants: GPL fabrics are available with taffeta on one or both sides. The constructions include various styles such as GPL 00, GPL 05, GPL 10, GPL 14, GPL 21, GPL 28, and GPL 35, each with specific Technora scrim and carbon insert configurations.

Applications: The GPL laminates are suitable for different boat lengths and sail types. For example, boats measuring 21’-26’ use GPL00/GPL05 for mainsails and genoas, while larger boats (45’-51’) use GPL21/GPL28 for mainsails.
