Rope splicing fids and tools
Splicing ropes is fun and quite easy. Especially if you have the right tools! D-SPLICER has developed a wide range of rope splicing fids and tools. As the development of rope fibres has taken off in the last decades. So new splicing tools were required. Especially ropes made of super fibres like Dyneema®, Vectran and Stirotex have made ropes stronger and thinner. A knot reduces the breaking strength by about 50%. Knotting super fibres is a waste of your investment in these high-tech ropes. Just make an eye-splice. You will see how easy it is to splice a rope with a core of e.g. Dyneema©.
D-SPLICER has developed the fids, needles and tools from its own rigging practice. Premiumropes riggers use D-SPLICER fids, scissors and needles all day. Here are links to product details of some rope splicing tools:
- - D-SPLICER needle set: comes with four double needles and an exchangeable handle. It's packed in a tube for easy storage.
- - Fixed pulling needles: fixed needles and available in four sizes to suit rope diameters between of 1-10 mm: F10, F15, F20 and F25.
- - Scissors for cutting super fibres: designed for cutting strong fibres like Dyneema®, Vectran and Stirotex.
- - Ceramic knife: cuts super fibers with ease and remains sharp.
- - SoftFid: when not enough space in a rope, use the Softfid to clamp to the rope and pull it through.
