Fabrics

NYLITE / MAXILITE

Spinnaker cloth for the quality conscious cruising sailor
► Designed for radial cut spinnakers
To produce the world’s finest spinnaker cloths, Contender works closely with their fiber producers and weavers. Thanks to this close co-operation and constant consultation with sailors and sailmakers all over the world, we have built up an unrivalled knowledge and understanding of spinnaker cloth. The exact balance of weight, stability, tear strength and breaking strain of Nylite and Maxilite cloths comes from the quality of the fibers, the weave and the finish of their construction. Nylite and Maxilite spinnaker fabrics are impregnated with a durable melamine finish and developed with the quality conscious cruising sailor in mind. The choice of Nylite or Maxilite fabric is determined by the size of your yacht and the conditions in which you want to sail. Both types of fabric have excellent resistance to tearing and good stretch resistance and they will give you many years of great sailing performance.

STORMLITE

Easy to trim on beam-reach courses’
► Designed for radial cut spinnakers
If you are a cruising yachtsman who is looking for a Code Zero or Reacher that is tough and can be trimmed easily, Stormlite is the most suitable cloth for you. The combination of polyester yarn with melamine impregnation make Stormlite into a cloth that retains its shape better than spinnaker fabric made of nylon. Stormlite retains its shape even under extreme conditions due to the high tensile strength of the polyester yarns. The fabric also has improved durability because of its good UV resistance compared to nylon. To produce the world’s finest spinnaker cloths, Contender works closely with their fiber producers and weavers. Thanks to this close co-operation and constant consultation with sailors and sailmakers all over the world, we have built up an unrivalled knowledge and understanding of spinnaker cloth.

SUPERLITE / SUPERKOTE

The polyurethane coating ensures high stability, low weight, 0% porosity and high water repellency. Professional sailors have always chosen the superior quality of Contender spinnaker cloth for their down-wind sails.

NYNAKOTE

PU coated nylon with a silicone fi nish for a slippery surface
► Designed for radial cut spinnakers
Dynakote 70 and 75 are high performance spinnaker fabrics with high stability, low weight, and zero porosity that have the same construction and polyurethane based coating as Superkote 70 and 75. The exclusive Dynakote finish adds a Nano surface coating to the fabric. The effect is a very smooth slippery surface which means that you can hoist and lower your sail faster, gybe quickly and more smoothly. The excellent water repellency ensures that your spinnaker stays light and dry for a long time, maintaining their bias stability even in the toughest conditions.

CODE ZERO ONYX

The perfect complement to the black sailing wardrobe
For sophisticated tastes, nothing says style more than classic black. From Italian sports cars to that little black dress, black accentuates that something extra. This holds true for sails. Today’s most eye-catching sails show that sleek look of a black mainsail and headsail on the horizon. Now Dimension-Polyant’s renowned Code Zero is also available in black. Our purpose-sourced black Aramid and Technora® material is paired with industry-leading color coating technology to ensure the same level of performance along with the longevity and improved UV stability you’d expect from Dimension-Polyant. Now in a rich, distinctive look that makes CZ onyx an easy choice for your next Code Zero. Get the look that makes a splash.

CODE ZERO SILVER

CZ Silver incorporates our proprietary non-reflective film to achieve a slicker, more flexible surface to facilitate roller furling. The softer hand allows easier handling on the foredeck and minimizes friction in hoists and takedowns. The Construction incorporates our proven Black Aramid fibres to produce low stretch and excellent UV stability, resulting in an attractive and modern light grey appearance.
