12-Strand Class I End-For-End Splice

SAMSON SPLICING INSTRUCTIONS

Class I 12-strand ropes are made from any or all of the following bers:

olen, polyester, or nylon.

This end-for-end splice may be performed on new or used rope. This

is an all-purpose splice technique designed for people who generally

splice used rope as frequently as new rope. By following the procedure

below, the splice can retain from 90% to 100% of average new rope

strength and in used rope up to the same proportion of residual used

rope strength.

Note: Some small sizes of 12-strand products have been converted to an

8-strand single braid.

step

Tape ends of line to be spliced. Lay 2 ropes to

be spliced side-by-side and measure 1 tubular

d length, (or 2 wire d lengths because wire

ds are half the size) from taped end of each

line and mark. This is Mark 1.

From Mark 1 measure 1 tubular d lengths

and make Mark 2 on both lines.

From Mark 2 measure 3 tubular d lengths

(6 wire d lengths) and make Mark 3

on both lines.

step

From Mark 1, in the direction of the taped end of the line, mark every 2nd

right and left strand* for 3 strands.**

Pull every marked strand out of line and cut off (tape at end can cause

resistance and may have to be removed in order to pull out cut strands.)

Tapered end will now have only 6 strands remaining (or 4 strands for an

8-strand braid.) Tape tapered tail tightly to keep from unbraiding.

*Some rope diameters may have pairs of strands in

right and left direction. In this case, treat the pairs of

strands as a single strand, marking and cutting both in

each direction as described above.

**For an 8-strand construction, mark every 3rd left and

right strand for 2 strands.
