You cannot expect to board a vessel without having all the necessary rigging, ropes, and accessories. They are of crucial importance to ensure safe and smooth navigation.The rigging offered by Osculati consists of a combination of cables and ropes used to keep the mast in position and regulate the tension of the sails. Cables, on the other hand, are used for traction and the safety of certain parts of the ship, such as the rudders.There are various types of cables and rigging, distinguished by their material, shape, and technical characteristics. These depend on the load capacity, wear resistance, and flexibility of the material.The most commonly used materials by Osculati are stainless steel and Parafil. The latter is a very special material designed specifically to deliver high performance. It is composed of continuous Terylene yarn coated with Alkaten. This composition gives it strength similar to steel but with significant additional advantages, such as lighter weight, no maintenance required, and high insulating power.However, the optimal function and use of cables and rigging are only possible in conjunction with efficient accessories. Osculati.com offers a wide range of these devices to meet every need. The online catalog includes, among others, pulleys, springs, grommets, nuts, and sleeves.Pulleys are used for the passage of cables, while springs are primarily employed to absorb shocks and vibrations. Given the substantial stresses these accessories are subjected to, it is essential that they are designed from durable materials such as brass and stainless steel.Nuts are tools used to secure the cables, while sleeves are used to protect them from wear. Finally, grommets are used for watertight sealing of parts of the ship, and receptacles are used for the passage of cables and pipes through the ship's deck.On Osculati's website, you can purchase all these accessories according to your specific needs.
