Uni-Titanium
Uni-Titanium sails represent a significant advancement in sail technology, offering lightweight construction and maintaining their designed shape across various wind speeds. This is achieved through a grid of loadpath carbon yarns and a thin layer of uni-directional carbon filaments within the lamination.
Key Features
- Performance: The sails maintain their trimmed shape regardless of wind changes, enhancing boat speed by 0.3 to 0.5 knots upwind.
- Construction: The sails feature a uni-directional carbon layer that carries loads and stresses, laminated between 3D-shaped Mylar skins with a copolymer coating for strong bonding.
- Durability: Unlike traditional sails, Uni-Titanium sails do not use adhesives on fibers, preventing brittleness and delamination, thus remaining flexible and strong.
Design and Manufacturing
Each sail is custom-designed using modern software to create 3D profiles, which are then cut and assembled with precision. The yarns are laid along loadpaths to optimize force distribution.
Guarantee
Uni-Titanium mainsails and non-overlapping genoas come with a two-year guarantee against delamination, while overlapping genoas have a one-year guarantee.
