Kingfisher now have available the latest products from Gottifredi Maffioli. ZTP Cover, DYCO Cover and single braid DSK78 ULTRAGRIP become a part of the Gottifredi Maffioli catalogue.

After a long series of tests, DYCO Cover and ZPT Cover (evolution of our world-famous ZP and GM Zylon Covers) become part of our GM COVER SYSTEM, the complete range of covers available for all the Gran Prix lines (DSK78 Race, DSK75 Race, Vectan braid).

ZPT Cover , with its particular construction (a blend of PBO, HT polyester and a special lubrificant fibre), guarantees very high performance: with the same characteristics of abrasion and heat resistance of ZP and GM Zylon Cover, delivers an incredible smooth and precise control in load release. Fluency is the key word for this new cover. DYCO Cover is characterised by incredible abrasion resistance and doesn’t absorb water. Very similar to KC Cover, this new cover enhances the property of lightness and become the new benchmark for high performance halyards.

DSK78 ULTRAGRIP is the new born of the high performance single braid of Gottifredi Maffioli’s catalogue. Thanks to its construction, a blend of the incredible low-creep of Dyneema® SK78 fibre with a special non- slip fibre, DSK78 Ultragrip become the ideal rope for performing, light and easy-to-handle control line.
