Torsion Stays & Clamps

Torsion Stays, Anti-Torsion Cables & Furling Clamps for High-Performance Sail Handling Systems

Technical Marine Supplies supplies a specialist range of torsion stays, anti-torsion cables and furling clamps designed for modern furling systems used on cruising yachts, racing yachts, superyachts and offshore sailing vessels. These critical components provide the mechanical link between the furling drum and swivel, enabling the efficient transfer of rotational loads required for reliable sail furling and deployment.

Anti-torsion cables play a vital role in modern sail-handling systems. In a furling installation, torque generated at the furling drum must be transmitted efficiently through the cable to the swivel at the head of the sail. This ensures that the sail rolls evenly and predictably during deployment and recovery, particularly when furling large code sails, gennakers, staysails and other free-flying sails.

Technical Marine Supplies offers a range of torsion stays and furling accessories suitable for Karver, Seldén and other leading furling systems. The category includes anti-torsion ropes and cables engineered to withstand the high rotational loads generated during furling operations while maintaining the flexibility and reliability required for offshore use. The range includes solutions for smaller furlers as well as larger custom applications where increased cable lengths and load capacities are required.

For smaller furling systems, Karver and TMS specify Marlow Pro Drive anti-torsion rope as a proven solution for applications including KF0.9 to KF6.0 furlers. For larger installations or extended cable lengths, custom-manufactured solutions from Armare are available to match individual sail plans and vessel requirements. These specialist products help optimise furling performance while maintaining sail shape and ensuring dependable operation in demanding sailing conditions.
