Custom Splicing

We are proud to provide a wide range of custom splicing services performed by professionals in our South Florida warehouse.

Our team of rope experts and splicing professionals have decades of experience.

Splicing is our recommended method for terminating a rope or permanently joining two ends of rope together without using a knot. In addition to the bulk of complication of knots, even the best dressed knot can significantly decrease a rope's strength, whereas splicing maintains almost 100% of a rope's native strength.

Here at ropethe.com our splicing team has decades of combined splicing knowledge and experience in the rope industry. Our splicing experts work daily on custom creations for commercial customers, boat owners, and more.

Splicing Terminology

Our professional process

We take pride in giving every custom splicing order the individual attention it deserves.

Once you place an order our rope experts will follow up with a Splice Confirmation email (so be on the lookout!). Once confirmed, we will hand cut your desired length of rope, checking every inch for quality assurance. Once the rope is inspected our splicing team begins fulfilling your order to the exact specifications you chose, including spliced eye(s) size and whipping twine color.

Splicing Double Braid Ropes (1/4"- 1-1/2"):

  • Standard spliced eye size is 12". For diameters 3/4” or larger, suggested eye 18”+
  • Finished rope length will be measured as overall length including spliced eye(s). 
  • All custom splicing orders come with whipped ends unless otherwise specified.
  • 1/4" double braid splices with NOT be whipped as this is just cosmetic in the industry. If you require whipping for this diameter, please let us know.

Splicing 3-Strand Ropes:

  • Finished rope length will be measured as overall length including spliced eye(s).
  • 3-Strand ropes are whipped at the ends only.

 **Please allow 1-2 weeks for custom spliced orders. If you are working with a deadline, please let us know. All custom spliced orders are non-refundable.

Whipping Twine Colors

Whipping twine colors add contrast and personality to your custom splicing project.

Joining rope by splicing is the not only the strongest but also the most aesthetic option. Knots can decrease rope strength by as much as 60 percent while splicing maintains almost 100 percent of the ropes strength. We follow the manufacturer's recommended splicing instructions. We can splice multiple size eyelets as well as whipped ends to prevent fraying over time.
