HOLLOW BRAID END LOOP GUIDE

Tools

Latch Needle

Making An End Loop In Hollow Braid

• Insert the latch needle about 6 inches from the end heading toward the bulk of the line.

• Push the latch needle out after 3 inches and loop the braid through the end hook.

• Proceed to push the braid off the latch needle until the loop is gone and the braid has literally turned inside out. Note: the latch should close as the braid is pushed off the end of the needle.

• Now adjust the size of your loop by sliding the inside out hollow either up or down the main hollow.

• Now insert the latch needle into the main hollow about an inch above where the tag end stops.

• Run it to within an inch of where the inside out hollow starts and push the needle out. Proceed to grab the tag end of the braid with the end hook.

• Now pull the tag end back through the area where the needle was just thread.

• Pull the latch needle out and then cinch down the junction point just as you would do for a line to line splice.

• Smooth out the bunched up hollow lines and trim the tag end so it gets encased by the main hollow line.
