Catamaran Webbing Nets

Webbing Nets are woven out of 1" or 2" wide strapping and designed to the shape of your net opening. Because of the strength of the strapping used, Webbing Nets are the strongest of all the nets we manufacture. Webbing Nets made with polyester webbing are 5 to 10 times stronger than any of the mesh or open net materials. You can read below for a litte more detail or click here to select your make / model of catamaran or trimaran from the hundreds of drawings we have on file where you can select your webbing net to order.

Webbing Nets are woven out of 1" or 2" wide strapping and designed to the shape of your net opening. Because of the strength of the strapping used, Webbing Nets are the strongest & most stable underfoot of all the nets we manufacture and are considered expedition grade. Webbing Nets made with polyester webbing are 5 to 10 times stronger than any of the mesh or open net materials. ****Because of their extreme strength, stability, & durability our webbing nets are almost always the best option for heavy use day charters taking large groups of people out multiple times a day. Depending on materials selected we warranty them for up to 8 years even in commercial use and our customers routinely get 10-15 years in extremely heavy commercial use applications. The nets are also re-coatable with our UV protective coating to freshen them up.*****

Our Webbing Nets are diagonally woven without a sewn on border. This creates a continuous weave (no visible ends) with a series of webbing loops around the perimeter of the net. This is the strongest possible attachment system as the stress is transferred directly from the webbing to the lacing. Because of the diagonal weave the holes sizes within the webbing nets will vary. This variance is minimal on rectangle shape nets and increases as the shape deviates from a rectangle. The Installation pages have more information on Webbing Net attachment.

There is a choice of hole sizes within the Webbing Nets. The Openness page on the Technical Info section of this site has more information. To compare the different hole sizes, you can open a pdf file, using the link to the right, showing the 4 different hole sizes available on a 1" webbing net. When printing the file out be sure that the "fit to page" or "shrink to paper size" option in the print dialog box is Not Selected, so that the page prints to an accurate scale.

Polyester


more details

Polyester is an excellent netting material due to its high strength, low stretch, and dimensional stability. For these nets we use a 1" wide single ply white polyester webbing which has a 5,000 lb breaking strength. We generally make these nets with average hole sizes of 1", 1-1/2", 2" & 2-1/2", with 1-1/2" and 2" being the most common. All of the intersections on the 1" Webbing Nets are heat welded, creating a strong bond and eliminating the need for stitching throughout the net.

1" Vinyl Coated Polyester


more details

The 1" polyester webbing nets can be vinyl coated in any of 13 colors. This is a durable, flexible, non-fading coating applied to both sides of the net in several coats. The coating makes the nets look better, stay cleaner, and more UV resistant (the warranty period for this net is 6 years). This is really the finest net for offshore cruising, it is strong, comfortable, open, and durable. If made with an average hole size of 2" the net will have an openness of 50% which is good for any weather conditions encountered on most cruising multihulls

more details

3Ply Webbing Nets are the strongest and most durable of all the nets with a center ply of white polyester webbing completely protected by webbing above and below. The outer ply's on the Black 3Ply are of black polypropylene which does not fade. This net maintains its appearance well, as most stains and dirt will not show on the black webbing. This is the webbing we have successfully been putting on day charter boats in the Caribbean for many years. It has proven to be extremely durable in the toughest conditions. We make this net with 2", 2-1/2" or 3" average hole sizes for a moderate openness. As on all 2" wide webbing Nets all of the intersections are stitched with Heavy PTFE thread. This net has an 6 year warranty period.
