Default Wait!

No, no, no,
Sorry if I wasn't clear. 16-strand is its own splice, nothing like the conventional "double-braid" splice. There are lots of ropes with a core and a cover, but they don't all take the same splice, and disaster can result if you put the wrong splice into a rope meant for a different one. Please look up the specific splice for your rope. If you are not sure what it should be, post a picture of the rope,or send me a sample, and I will tell you.
Fair leads,
Brion Toss
