🔍 Key Concepts

• Short splice vs. long splice – how each affects the diameter of the line • How a line runs through a block or sheave and why diameter matters • Typical use of short splices in fiber rope, not wire rope

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens when you tuck two strand-ends back into each other – does that make the rope thicker, thinner, or about the same? • If the line needs to pass freely through a block, would you want a section that is larger in diameter than the rest of the line? • Is a short splice a standard method used on fiber line, wire rope, or both?

✅ Before You Answer

• Compare in your mind the construction of a short splice (bulky) versus a long splice (more spread-out). • Ask yourself if a change in diameter would cause jamming in a block or sheave. • Recall standard practice: are short splices commonly made in wire rope, or is there another preferred method (like wire rope clips or swaged fittings)?
