Introducing Photon Rigging
M.A.R.S are the UK Distributor and Agent for the range of
Photon Advanced Fibre Rigging Systems.
STRUCTURAL RIGGING
LS Photon
In direct replacement of Dyform and Wire Rigging Systems.
Compatible with Selden, Zspars and Sparcraft Masts as well as other Carbon Ranges of mast.
LS Photon is a unique pultruded UHMWPE/Vectran solid rod, which is covered with an aramid fiber and UV resistant urethane coating.
The process starts with sling winding the uni-directional fibers using our state-of-the-art custom winding machine.
The fibers are then passed through three consolidation dies, which fuse the filaments into a single solid rod.
This rod, is then covered with four layers of black Technora which is used specifically for its resistance to high speed/heat abrasion, which can be caused from a sheet passing over the cable at high speed.
The final process to complete the cable is to bond the aluminum/titanium ends onto the cable and apply a UV resistant urethane coating.
LS Photon rigging uses standard stainless terminals, which can be customized to match any retrofit configuration.
This unique process produces a strong, tough and resilient cable that is impervious to fatigue, corrosion, UV and chafe damage. The end cones are light weight high grade aluminum, hard coat anodized, with titanium inserts, to isolate the stainless-steel terminal from the aluminum cone, preventing any possibly of galvanic corrosion.
