Tapered Opti Mainsheet
FSE's tapered lines feature outstanding properties such as excellent abrasion resistance, extra low stretch, and the use of top-quality polyester from selected suppliers.
A specialized line, the Opti Main Sheet is double tapered - thinner at the ends, thicker in the centre where it provides excellent hand grip. The smaller line diameter at the ends reduces friction in blocks and sheaves, for lower physical effort on the sailor.
It is constructed of a mix of Dyneema® with a polyester yarn for high loads, low stretch and excellent grip.
Features:
Note: This sheet is not symmetric, one taper is longer than the other - the long taper runs through the blocks on the boom, the shorter taper runs through the cockpit sole blocks.
WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including FORMALDEHYDE (GAS) which is known to the State of California to cause cancer. For more information go to P65Warnings.ca.gov.
The Robline Tapered Opti Mainsheet (MT-OPTI) is a specialized line designed for marine applications, specifically for Opti-class sailboats. This double-tapered mainsheet features a thicker 9mm center section for enhanced grip and thinner 6mm ends. The reduced diameter at the ends is engineered to minimize friction when passing through blocks and sheaves, potentially reducing the physical effort required for operation. Constructed from a blend of Dyneema� and polyester yarn, it offers a combination of abrasion resistance, low stretch, and the ability to handle high loads. The asymmetric tapering, with one taper longer than the other, is intended for specific routing: the longer taper through boom blocks and the shorter through cockpit sole blocks. This product is suitable for buyers seeking a durable and functionally optimized mainsheet for Opti sailboat rigging.
