Vectran fibers are among among the lowest stretch fibers available on the market today. Samson Validator combines the low-stretch perfromance of a vectran core with the protection of a 24-strand polyester cover.

We like to use Validator II for jib halyards, main halyards, 2:1 main halyards, and for our custom continuous mainsheet where we can melt the cover together without damaging the core (vectran does not melt).
