Some highlights about the rope used in this video -
- 12-strand UHMWPE (ultra high molecular weight polyethylene) aka HMPE (high modulus polyethylene)
- Stronger than steel wire rope of equal size, great for winch lines, lifting slings
- Great abrasion and UV resistance
- Lightweight. Floats on water
- Easily spliced, extremely low stretch
Some details about this rope...
Our 12-strand ultra high molecular weight polyethylene is one of the strongest materials available. Size for size it is stronger than steel, yet it is light enough to float on water. It is blue urethane coated for greater wear resistance and longevity. These ropes make excellent winch lines, pulling ropes, and lifting slings. HMPE is an extremely high strength and low stretch rope which makes it the safest choice for applications requiring the highest level of safety.

Nicely done video! I was taught 3 1/2 fid lengths for the bury with one of those for the taper. Also, I always found Selma Fids so much easier to use for any 12 strand hollow braid work. I’ve always made my marks, made the first loop then made the second loop stretched and inverted it first. Then I use a piece of doubled over baling wire to pass through the first loop. Use a regular fid to stretch out my inverted loop and then place the two ends of the baling wire into the fid and push it through the inverted loop. As you pull it through, it emerges and untwists itself automatically. , then mark the length of your bury on the other rope and add 1 fid length, bury and pull out to taper then milk it back in as you did. I use this for stage and stunt work so I’m frequently splicing backstage i very little light. For me, this is just an easier sequence than trying to revert the twist with the other rope through it. Thanks again!

Great video

Previously, I've seen this described as the Mobius Brummel Splice.

I believe a möbius Brumell is what it’s called when making a loop.

Do you ever splice with the individual strands with 12 strand rope ?
