FATZER has developed a proprietary splicing process in which the original core remains in the center of the splice. In addition, the insertion ends in front of and behind the splice are wrapped with the pressure-stable FATZER splice tape. The fibre-reinforced rubber band has the property of absorbing the radial compressive forces without tearing. This ensures that the insertion end does not touch the adjacent strands and is protected from penetrating moisture and contamination.
TRUsplice® is a tailor-made insert that is specially customized to cradle the strands of the rope. This reduces strand contact to a minimum and increases the fatigue life of the rope.
Customer Benefit
- reduces operating costs over the fatigue life of the rope
- increases the fatigue life of the splice
- increased system availability
- reduced running noise emissions
- gentler coupling processes around the splice
