Abstract
In forming flemish eyes at the ends of wire ropes to produce e.g. slings, serious difficulties arise when forming the anchorage for the spliced loops if the rope is of large diameter. The terminal end of the rope material has its component strands naturally laid on the rope, and it has been proposed to enclose the naturally laid strands in a cylindrical sleeve adjacent to the loop and introduce a hardenable anchoring material such as a resin into the sleeve to complete the anchorage. It is now found that improved loading distribution on a wire rope can be obtained through providing an anchorage for the loop in the form of a sleeve comprising a socket, and flaring-out into the socket the component wires of portions of the strands remote from the loop, the strand portions adjacent to the loop remaining naturally laid on the rope.
