In a rope splice, an end portion 3a of each strand tail of one length of rope is connected end to end to an end portion 3b of a strand tail (or core portion) of the other length of rope, by connecting means such as a ferrule 1 with interposed adhesive 4. The ferrule may have a bore which tapers inwardly towards its ends (Fig. 2), may be waisted in the middle (Fig. 3), may comprise two end parts articulated together (Fig. 4), may be of metal or composite material, and may be internally grooved. <IMAGE> |
