The strength of a 2-1/2" Flemished eye sling comes primarily from the splicing process—where the wire rope’s stiff strands are woven back onto themselves, forming a strong, natural eye. But to ensure everything stays locked in, we use a swage sleeve to secure the short tails (per ASME and industry standards). This final step compresses the sleeve, preventing movement and giving the sling a termination efficiency of 94%–96%, depending on the wire rope diameter. This swager can do up to 4-1/2 inch

Here's a basic wire rope thimbled eye splice, going around a Gunnebo oblong/oval master link (also called a "ring" by many riggers). A Flemished eye splice like this is strong, safe and the preferred method for sling building. The thimble helps protect the wire rope from abrasion and also helps preserve a proper D/d ratio. The master link provides a nice, large lifting point and is more versatile than a thimbled eye alone. This is a fairly small wire rope, so it's only intended for lightweight a

Watch one of our newer shop fabricators learning how to splice a Flemished (standard) eye wire rope sling. Instead of cutting the footage up and making it look easy, we thought it might be nice to show what it's like when you're just starting out in this trade. 2-1/2 inch 6x19 wire rope is reasonably stiff and doesn't like to bend, even when broken into its individual strands. These eyes took a long time for our team of three riggers to splice, upwards of 30 minutes each when you include the tim

Thimbled eyes are a popular termination for wire rope slings. The benefit is they help retain the health of the eye, providing a good bend radius and resistance to abrasion. The downside is that you can’t pass one thimble eye through another (of the same size) for easy choking. The eye is formed by splitting the end of the rope into two tails, then overlapping them, and braiding them back together to form a loop. The wire rope will naturally lay back into itself when this process is done correct
