12-Strand Class II Tuck-Bury Eye Splice Modiﬁed For HMPE

SAMSON SPLICING INSTRUCTIONS

step

After completing the rst 3 tucks, remove 1/2 of the volume of the twisted yarns. Cut yarns from each

of the 6 strands near the taped ends and complete 3 more tucks with the reduced volume strands.

The strands are now

tucked into the braid of

the rope. 1 complete

tuck consists of passing

a strand over 1 strand

and under 2 strands.

The tucks proceed down

the same row of picks

straight down the body

of the rope.

TUCKING THE STRANDS

Do 3 complete tucks for all 6 strands. Each strand is always tucked under the same

line of the braid so that the tucks progress straight down the body of the rope.

Remove the tape from the end

of the tail. Now smooth the rope

from the eye towards Mark 3, the

tail will disappear into the rope.

Smooth the rope to remove any

remaining slack. Check that the

6 routed strands are snug.

SMOOTHING SLACK OVER TAPER

step

After completing the second set of 3 tucks, cut off the excess

material and tape the ends. Leave enough of an end protruding so

that it does not slip back into the rope when the rope is loaded.
