Blue Wave manufacture a huge range of yacht rigging hardware including marine rod and roping products.
Sandvik SanRig 80 marine rod is an austenitic stainless steel characterised by very high fatigue and tensile strength, combined with good corrosion resistance in seawater containing media. Sandvik SanRig 80 rig rood is developed specially for marine applications.
Corrosion resistance in seawater and other high chloride containing media, Sandvik SanRig 80 rig rod has very good corrosion resistance. Tests have been carried out in 3% NaCl solution using an electrochemical cell with an applied potential of 300mV VS. SCE. The determined critical pitting temperature (CPT) of Sandvik SanRig 80 was approximately 50 C (122 F). Based on the results it can be concluded that the pitting corrosion resistance of Sandvik SanRig 80 rig rod is sufficient for the application and comparable to grade Nitronic* 50.
Proof strength Rpo.2 for Sandvik SanRig 80 rig rod is in the range of 80 – 85 % of the tensile strength. Sandvik SanRig 80 can resist high loads without permanent set of the rig.

Marine Rod Pressing Machine
The Principals.
The double acting cylinder applies pressure to two tapered dies through a regulated pressure pipe. The outer piston applies pressure to the tapered dies and locks the rod.
Through the centre piston, pressure up till 260T, is applied to the end of the rodand forms the “head”.
The press can be delivered with 3 different hydraulic units.
Option 1. The HAGG PA 9 is an air hydraulic pump powered by an air compressor. Time for a press cycle is approximately 30 to 50 seconds, depending on rod size.
Option 2. The HAGG PHS 36 is a two stage hand operated pump, one stage for low pressure and one for high pressure. It takes approximately 5 strokes in low pressure mode, and 50 strokes in high pressure mode to achieve a press cycle.
Option 3. The HAGG HC44/1,5 is a compact hydraulic pump that runs on high voltage electricity, 400V, 50 Hz. The compact hydraulic pumps is fitted with a manometer which automatically switches of the the pump when the desired hydraulic pressure level is reached. Time for a press cycle is approximately 15 seconds.
