I never thought about the different uses for these. Love my loops
Awesome glad we could give you some more uses!! Thanks for watching
Excellent clear instructions, thanks.👍👏🏴
Thanks for the refresher.
You're welcome! Hope it helped
Is the process similar for thicker 12 strand dyneema? I was following along, but the last steps of hiding the ends only seems to stop about an inch inside. Much harder to pull it, or even get a grip on it with the smaller latch hook.
Have you tried break testing your loops? After the initial part where you pulled each tail through the other side, it looked like you could easily pull the loop apart. Without actually locking the loop, it seems like the strength of the splice is based on the buried ends. Not even lockstitched? Hmm. I'm skeptical of the strength.
I have, and they actually were stronger than a locking stich continuous loop. It wasn't much difference, though. The average for the locked brummel was 2928 pounds and 3044 for these.
Hey Trevor I'm getting to make a pair of 3 1/2" continuous loops out of zingit and I just need to check my math. I plan on a 2" bury so I'm thinking an overall length of 11 1/2". 7" for the loop and 2" for the bury with a 1/4" loss on each side from the bury. Does this sound right? Also, what in the world do you use to run through the center of the line for the buries, the small hook tool is too big to work through it.
@PacMan257,
Math is strange when it comes to splicing. I mostly do trial and error when it comes to lengths. I just spliced a 3.5 inch loop with 2.2 mm. I used 12.5 inches with 2 inch bury. This came to 3.5 inch loop when completed. Give that a try and let me know. I don't see too much difference with 1.75mm.
Let me know if that works!
I will sit down and see if I can come up with some sort of calculator the will give the correct lengths. Happy Splicing!
I have created an Excel file that should calculate your lengths for any future splicing needs! Please let me know if it works for you
