NorDac sailcloth is woven with the densest possible fiber content to ensure excellent shape holding and durability.© North Sails

Premium NorDac

The manufacturing of exceptional quality plain (standard) weave polyester sailcloth is far more complex than the material’s appearance might indicate. Premium NorDac™ starts with high-tenacity polyester yarn woven in proprietary warp/fill combinations. Premium NorDacs have the densest possible fiber content ensuring excellent shapeholding and the longest performance life. Woven “greige goods” undergo extensive and closely monitored finishing, scouring, calendering, melamine impregnation, heat setting, coating (One Design and UV styles), slitting and final inspection/grading. Premium NorDac is offered in fill-oriented High Aspect styles (for taller, narrower sails) and balanced Low Aspect styles (lower than 2.5:1 sail height to width ratio) versions, and may be ordered in both firm and very firm finishes. The world’s best woven polyester sailcloth, Premium NorDac is available in a wide variety of styles.

Tough, durable 4800 NorDac™ offers near Premium performance in a more economical middle range of styles. 4800 NorDacs are intended as general use materials for dedicated sailors, well suited to moderate displacement cruising boats with modern rig plans. 4800 cloth is a cost effective choice that doesn’t sacrifice quality, and is well suited to the rigors of offshore cruising and blue water sailing. 4800 is available in 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.5oz. styles.
