Coir
| Глоссарий морской лексики и терминологии (английский язык) |
- Cordage made from the fibrous husks of the cocoa-nut; though cables made of it are disagreeable to handle and coil away, they have the advantage of floating in water, so that vessels ride easily by them; they are still used by the calcutta pilot-brigs. true coir is from the borassus gomutus, the long fibrous black cloth-like covering of the stem. it is from this that the black cables in the east are made; the cocoa-nut fibre being of a reddish hue. it is used for strong brushes, being cylindrical and smooth, with a natural gloss.
- Fiber made from coconut husk, used to make buoyant matting and low-grade rope. pronounced coyer.

- A sort of serpentine winding of a cable or other rope, that it may occupy a small space in the ship. each of the windings of this sort is called a fake, and one range of fakes upon the same line is called a tier. there are generally from five to seven fakes in a tier, and three or four tiers in the whole length of the cable. the smaller ropes employed about the sails are coiled upon cleats at sea, to prevent their being entangled.
- The depositing of sliver into cylindrical cans in helical loops. this arrangement permits easy removal for further processing.
