Radial HD 2.0

Radial HD clew and tack panels combine the load distributing and weight saving properties of Powerfuse in a more economical and even more bulletproof, stitched construction.

Radial HD construction uses overlapping materials at high load points (clew and tack) to bring the load distribution advantages and variable thickness strength to weight ratio found in Powerfuse to this less expensive, stitched construction. Each layer of X-Ply is overlaid in a radial pattern to create thick and extremely strong multiple layer pieces at the tack and clew which spread out into thin, light weight panels where less load is carried and strength is less critical, thus saving weight in these areas.

Radial HD panels are stitched together, creating our strong- est radial panels at our most affordable price point. This construction allows us to provide maximum strength in the highest load areas and minimum weight towards the centre of the sail where such strong material is not necessary.
