A splice joint is a method of joining two members end to end in woodworking. [1] The splice joint is used when the material being joined is not available in the length required. It is an alternative to other joints such as the butt joint and the scarf joint. Splice joints are stronger than unreinenforced butt joints and have the potential to be ...
The end of the rope with the splice is about twice the thickness of the rest of the rope. With nylon and other plastic materials, the back splice is often no longer used; the rope strands are simply fused together with heat to prevent fraying. [4] An unfinished cut splice; Cut splice (originally cunt splice) – A splice similar to the eye splice.
A split-50 M-type 66 block with bridging clips attached. A 66 block is a type of punch-down block used to connect sets of wires in a telephone system. They have been manufactured in four common configurations, A, B, E and M. [a] A and B styles have the clip rows on 0.25" centers while E and M have the clip rows on 0.20" centers.
A punch-down block (also punchdown block, punch block, punchblock, quick-connect block and other variations) is a type of electrical connection often used in telephony. It is named because the solid copper wires are "punched down" into short open-ended slots which are a type of insulation-displacement connector .
Terminal blocks (also called terminal boards or strips) provide a convenient means of connecting individual electrical wires without a splice or physically joining the ends. Since terminal blocks are readily available for a wide range of wire sizes and terminal quantity, they are one of the most flexible types of electrical connector available.
"Worming" the line is designed to fill in the channels (the contlines) between the strands in order to keep water out and to allow tighter, smoother wrapping of the next layers by giving the rope a more cylindrical shape.
A tube-shaped connector with two crimps for splicing wires in-line is called a butt splice connector. Single-wire crimp terminals include: Blade or quick disconnect (e.g., Faston or Lucar) Bullet (e.g. Shur-Plug) Butt splice; Flag tongue; Rectangular tongue; Hook tongue; Spade tongue (flanged, short spring, long spring) Ring tongue (slotted ...
Film splice, the joining of film stock; Electrical splice, the joining of wires in electrical wiring; Optical splice, the joining of optical fibers: Fusion splicing, a permanent splice between two fibers; Mechanical splice, a temporary splice between two fibers; Pile splice, connecting two concrete, timber or steel piles for a deep foundation
