Fine Weight Elastic Rigging Line

EZ Line provides comprehensive fine weight elastic rigging thread perfect for delicate standing and running rigging on sailing ship models. The fine weight line includes E-Z Line Fine Black 100 Ft. for traditional black-tarred rigging representing hemp rope treated with tar for weather protection, E-Z Line Fine White 100 Ft. for untreated natural rope or modern synthetic lines, E-Z Line Fine Rope 100 Ft. in authentic tan color representing natural hemp or manila rope, E-Z Line Fine Rust 100 Ft. for weathered or oxidized wire rigging, E-Z Line Fine Blue 100 Ft. for decorative lines or modern synthetic rope, and E-Z Line Fine Green 100 Ft. for specialized applications or modern lines. The fine weight gauge suits delicate rigging including ratlines, signal halyards, flag lines, light running rigging, and detailed standing rigging on smaller vessels or larger scale models. The elastic properties allow the rigging to maintain realistic tension and sag without requiring complex tensioning systems, while the material resists fraying and holds knots securely. These fine rigging lines integrate perfectly with Model Shipways, Amati, and Bluejacket ship fittings.

Heavy Weight Elastic Rigging Line

EZ Line offers heavy weight elastic rigging thread for substantial standing rigging, heavy running rigging, and cable work on ship models. The heavy weight line includes E-Z Line Heavy Black 100 Ft. for main shrouds, stays, and heavy running rigging, E-Z Line Heavy White 100 Ft. for untreated heavy rope or modern synthetic cables, E-Z Line Heavy Rope 100 Ft. in authentic tan for natural fiber heavy rope, E-Z Line Heavy Rust 100 Ft. for wire rope and cable rigging, E-Z Line Heavy Blue 100 Ft. for decorative or modern heavy lines, and E-Z Line Heavy Green 100 Ft. for specialized heavy rigging applications. The heavy weight gauge suits substantial rigging including main shrouds and stays, heavy running rigging for yards and sails, anchor cables and mooring lines, towing cables, and heavy standing rigging on larger vessels. The increased diameter provides visual weight and presence appropriate for main structural rigging while maintaining the elastic properties that create realistic appearance. The 100-foot spools provide ample material for complete rigging projects on multiple models. These heavy rigging lines complement Mantua, Artesania Latina, Billing Boats, and OcCre ship accessories.

EZ Line American Innovation and Quality

EZ Line revolutionized ship model rigging by introducing elastic thread that maintains realistic tension and sag without complex rigging techniques. Their rigging line features elastic properties that allow natural sag and tension, authentic colors matching historical rope and cable, resistance to fraying and unraveling, secure knot-holding capability, consistent diameter throughout the spool, UV resistance for long-term display, and easy installation without specialized tools or techniques. The elastic nature eliminates the need for complex tensioning systems, blocks, and deadeyes on simpler models while still allowing their use on more detailed builds. The material can be painted or weathered for additional realism, accepts CA glue for permanent installations, and maintains tension over time without loosening. The comprehensive color range allows accurate representation of different rope types, ages, and treatments from black-tarred hemp to natural manila to modern synthetic lines. The fine and heavy weight options provide appropriate scale appearance for all rigging types from delicate signal halyards to massive anchor cables.
