Beeline Splice Instructions

[dtreez]

Does anyone know; for splicing eyes onto Yale's Beeline, which splicing instructions on their website are the right ones to follow?

There's a few versions of beeline. Splice may depend on that.

Samson’s Tuck Bury is the best one for double eye hitch cords, it keeps almost all of its strength, and covered eyes are easy to do. With locked brummels, you have to do a naked eye splice, which loses about 25%, with a fid and a half bury. If you want covered eyes with the brummels the second eye has to be done by rebraiding the tail, which loses 40% of the strength.

Beelines cover is also loose enough that the cover tail can be buried, rather than whipped to the side.

I see Samson has updated their instructions for this splice, as well as others. The old version stopped at Step 5, I inserted the pairs through the center staggered, and just cut off.

I also see they have changed the end of the tapered tail from a fine point to leaving 3 strands.
