Splicing Hollow Braid Poly Rope
To splice, all you need is a piece of hollow braid rope and a splicing fid. A fid is simply a hollow vehicle, or carrier, with a tapered point, into which you thrust an end of your rope so that it can be carried through the remaining length of rope to form a loop. Every package of Lehigh's hollow braid rope contains a fid and splicing instructions. View Lehigh's hollow braid poly rope.
