Gilsons
High tech fishing rope solutions made with the worlds strongest fiber. Together with our customers we continuosly work to develop new and better solutions to increase productivity and efficiency.
The Gilson is made of Dextron® with Dyneema and is covered with the OTS Protective jacket™. The high abrasion resistance due to quality of rope provide for durability, reliability, longer service lifetime, low operation costs and safer operations. It has no “meat hooks” and gives low lash back.
The Dextron ® 12 Aqua rope is especially designed for applications within the fishing -and aquaculture industry. The rope construction combined with the Dyneema® SK62 fiber and special coating to withstand flushing makes this a especially good product for aquaculture applications.

The patented chafe gear - OTS Protective jacket™ - offers excellent protection against external abrasion and increases rope lifetime with up to five times. The "no-rupture" construction combined with the worlds most abrasion resistant synthetic fibers, makes this the best cut -and abrasion resistant cover for your ropes. The jacket is mechanically braided onto the rope for a firm and solid finish.
OTS Protective jacket™ is braided in the following combinations:
- Soft eyes
- Soft eyes and required length (for instance over the splices)
- Exposed area on the rope
- Entire rope length
OTS Protective Jacket™
- Made with HMPE or polyester fiber.
- The OTS Protective Jacket™ comes out as a clear winner in comparative testing of abrasion and cut resistance.
- Excellent protection against wear and tear.
- Patented technology
Advantages
- Increases service life.
- Can be braided onto entire rope or exposed areas.
- Prevents rope from twisting.
- Protects rope from external abrasion.
- Reduced size of mooring line.
- Reflective material can be woven into jacket band for better visibility.
- Jacket band can be delivered in any colour.
