1

step

Tape the ends of the ropes to be

spliced. Lay Ropes A and B side-by-

side and measure 1-1/2 tubular fid

lengths, (if using a wire fid, measure

3 fid lengths because wire fids are

half size) from the taped end of

each line and make Mark 1.

From Mark 1, measure

1-3/4 fid lengths and make

Mark 2 on both ropes.

2

step

At Mark 1, pull out half the strands (3 “S” and 3 "Z") by rotating

around the rope, pulling out strands in the pattern shown:
Z Strands = counter clockwise twist

S Strands = clockwise twist
This should leave 6 strands still braided down the middle.

Tightly tape the ends of the 6 individual strands, and the

end of the remaining braided portion.

On 1 side you should have 2 S and 1 Z

and on the other side, 2 Z and 1 S.

The Tuck-Bury splice is designed as a short splice for Class II 12-strand ropes only.
