The pre-stretched, bio-based D12 78 core makes D2 Racing a high-strength, lightweight all-round performer. It is colour coded with the cover ensuring identification is assured even if the cover is stripped. Upgrade polyester halyards such as Doublebraid or Marlowbraid with D2 Racing by choosing a smaller diameter and achieving weight savings and handling improvements with higher safety factors and far fewer rig adjustments when sailing.
The 24-plait polyester jacket runs smoothly and grips well gibing superior performance in clutches, jammers and winches and providing excellent abrasion resistance and greater longevity. D2 Racing is easily spliced and tapered for a safer rig and the brightly coloured polyester cover is easily identifiable.
