INFO: Splicing

Splicing is the break-resistant, permanent, non-detachable connection of ropes by a specific type of interweaving. In principle, when splicing braided hollow ropes, the rope end is pushed back through the hollow core of the rope over a defined length. The resulting connection gains its strength from the fact that the hollow core contracts under load and firmly grips the rope end located inside.
