Grommets
Hello at last,
I finally dug out some old test results on HM grommets. We didn't test many, and the results varied from about 113% to 180% of rated strength. The weak ones were stitched at the crossover, and the strong ones Brummeled. Also, the weak ones had a very short overlap of the ends, so it is likely there was a stress riser there at load. Other than that I do not know what the variables were. I will add grommets to my next batch of test samples.
Fair leads,
Brion Toss
