Look guys I splice wire rope for a living. It is no joke when it fails. We hand splice very seldom anymore. There are a few drilling companies out there that prefer this method for "spinning". The actual industry standard for a pull test on any wire rope sling is 3x, we pull 5 x. I stand corrected.
My question is why would someone WANT to hand splice when wire clips do the job? We sell wire rope clips upto 2" diameter wire rope.
