splices or ferrules. The length (h) of the eye on a steel wire rope must be at least 15 x d.
d = rope diameter
L = Effective length of endless sling
The distance between the ferrules on a endless
sling must not be less than 3 x the length of the ferrule. (unpressed). The distance between the two ferrules on lifting slings must not be less than 20 x d. For hand spliced lifting slings the minimum length of plain rope shall be at least 15 x d.
