Leading the Pack
For three decades, Hydraulink has proudly stood alongside Emirates Team New Zealand (ETNZ) on the world’s greatest sailing stage — the America’s Cup. Since San Diego in 1995, through Bermuda, Auckland, and Barcelona, our hydraulic hose and fittings have powered victory after victory. Now, we look ahead to Naples 2027, proud to be part of the unseen force behind these successes.
PARTNERING IN EXCELLENCE
Prior to finalising the design and development, Hydraulink and the Emirates Team New Zealand designers and engineers have been involved in a wide range of activities to ensure that the hydraulic systems are robust and will deliver the power and control to provide optimum performance.
HYDRAULINK’S INVOLVEMENT
One essential part Hydraulink plays in supporting Emirates Team New Zealand is designing optimal and efficient hose assemblies to transfer the energy generated by the “Cyclor” pedal-powered hydraulic system. Cyclors provide hydraulic power for the boat control systems, including control of the soft wing mainsail, foils and rudder functions. We believe it will be essential for us to design hose assemblies for the Cyclor system to reduce the line losses and transfer as much power as possible.
