Standing Rigging and Traction Systems for Tall Ships and Naval Training Vessels

At Cables Estructurales, we tackle technical challenges where maritime tradition meets the highest precision of modern engineering. Our track record in the naval sector is defined by the trust of the world’s most elite Navies.

Flagship Projects in Rigging and Traction Systems:

• Juan Sebastián de Elcano (Spain): We executed the total replacement of the standing rigging. We designed, manufactured, and certified custom critical components (terminals, turnbuckles, and deadeyes), meeting the Spanish Navy’s rigorous standards under extremely tight deadlines.
• Guayas (Ecuador): We deployed our industrial capacity directly to the shipyard in Ecuador. We relocated specialized machinery and expert personnel for on-site manufacturing of all the ship’s cables, ensuring millimetric precision in every adjustment.
• Cuauhtémoc (Mexico): Following the Brooklyn Bridge incident, we led the comprehensive redesign and ground-up manufacturing of stainless steel turnbuckles and standing rigging fittings, certifying the vessel’s safety under international regulations.

Technical Capacity Without Borders: Our expertise allows us to design bespoke solutions for tall ship rigging, combining advanced material science with a logistics network capable of operating in any port worldwide.
