12-Strand Class I Eye Splice Modiﬁed for Quik-Splice

SAMSON SPLICING INSTRUCTIONS

1 ﬁd

This is a modication to the standard 12-strand Class I eye splice

to be used for splicing Samson Quik-Splice.

The eye splice is used to place a permanent loop in the end of a

rope, generally for attachment purposes to a xed point. An

eye is also used to form the rope around a thimble, which is

used to protect the rope, especially when it is to be attached

to a shackle, chain, or wire rope.

This eye 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.

step

Tape end of line to be spliced and

measure 1 tubular d length (or 2 wire

d lengths because wire ds are half the

length of tubular ds) from taped end of

line and make Mark 1.

From Mark 1 measure 1 tubular d

length (or 2 wire d lengths) and make

Mark 2. Now form size of eye desired

and make Mark 3 adjacent to Mark 2.

step

From Mark 1, toward the taped end of the line, mark every second right and then every

second 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.

**Some very small diameter ropes may be 8-strand.

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

and right strand for 2 strands.
