CUSTOM-MADES AND HIGH PERFORMANCE TAPERED SHEETS
In the development of new products, FSE Robline® continues to maintain close contact with regatta sailors who compete in the most challenging races. The results of our close cooperation with racing teams in the RC44, TP52, GC32, Extreme 40, M32 and Maxi classes clearly document our successful commitment to the racing segment.

High Performance Tapered Sheets
Our new range of High Performance Tapered Sheets gives our customers access to the same technology that is used in racing by our development partners. This means that you can put together your custom-configured product from the specified core and cover materials. This allows you to adapt your cordage to the specific requirements of your yacht, define your individual colors and diameters, and, where necessary, make a change to the diameter a taper.
In the Grand Prix regatta classes, but also in the Olympic classes and the Sportsboats classes, machine-tapered sheets are enjoying increas¬ing popularity in order to achieve an even greater advantage in terms of wind resistance and friction in the block cascades.
Machine-tapered sheets can bridge differences in diameter of up to 5mm. Thus, there are almost no limitations to your choice of materials for core and cover.
Contact your FSE partner (see list of distributors on page 59) to obtain information regarding prices and prospective delivery times. Usually, delivery turnaround is a few weeks. The prices are determined on a case to case basis, depending on the diameter and the materials used.
Using our machine-tapered ropes provides significant advantages:
- Professional machine-tapering with even transitions
- Reduced weight and wind resistance of cordage
- Strong where it matters
- Improved handling
- Smaller line diameters generate less friction in the blocks/halyard sheaves, minimizing the required physical effort
- Less rope chaos on board
These benefits might just make the difference for you to claim victory!
