Abstract:

A wire rope sling made of wire rope having a core and multiple strands of wire helically laid around the core and cut from a predetermined length. Approximately half of the strands of wire are separated from the core and the remaining strands of wire, shifted, relative to the core, a predetermined distance and rewoven with the core and remaining strands of wire into a continuous loop. A splicing sleeve surrounds first and second ends of the approximately half of the strands and a continuous section of the core and remaining strands in a tightly engaged manner and another splicing sleeve surrounds first and second ends of the core and the remaining strands and a continuous section of the approximately half of the strands in a tightly engaged manner.
