EYE SPLICE A loop in the end of a fender rope. Feed the tail of the rope through the eye opf the fender, then through the loop to leave your fender securely attached to the rope.
On a fender rope an eye splice is around 10cm in length and on a mooring rope it is around 25cm
BACK SPLICE
The end of the rope is folded back on itself and spliced to leave a neat finish
Eye Splice with metal thimble
Thimbles give a solid, hard surface for ropes when joining to chain with shackles etc. Our galvanised thimbles are British Standard Hot Dipped Galvanised so have longer lasting corrosion resistance.
