Round Plait Class I Eye Splice

SAMSON SPLICING INSTRUCTIONS

Class I round plait ropes are made from any or all of the following bers: olen, polyester, or nylon.

The round plait construction requires a splicing technique different from other 12-strand braided ropes.

The “tuck” procedure may be performed in the eld on both new and used rope with a minimum of tools.

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.

MEASURING AND MARKING

step

Divide the 12 individual strands

into 6 pairs of 2 strands each. The

strands that are paired together

should be adjacent to each other at

the point where the unbraided rope

meets the tape wrapped around the

rope. There should be 1 "S" strand

(strand with clockwise twist) and

1 "Z" strand (strand with counter-

clockwise twist) in each pair. Before

taping each set of strands together,

twist each strand separately to

maintain the twist of the ber.

From the end of the rope, measure 1 d length. At this point

put 1 loose wrap of tape around the rope. This is Mark 1.

PAIRING THE STRANDS

Form the desired eye size using the tape wrapped

around the rope as a reference mark. Mark

the body of the rope at the point where it

matches up with Mark 1. This is Mark 2.
