Tip tie rigging with the x rigging rings.

[Rich Rule]

No it doesn't!

 

Bummer really as I have rings and tenex to splice a cambium saver style rigging sling but it won't fit. I guess it would for a 12 mm rope.

Bugger!! I was going to splice my new 16mm line when I get it. I might just give that idea a miss now! Or I suppose I could do it then use as and when but use the un spliced end like normal

Spot on

Basically mate, yes. A bit more than 15 quid though.

 

The beast rings are very large and can handle 19mm rope easily. Just for reference the yellow tenex on the woopie I made is 19mm. All in all though the cost is far less than a 19mm impact block and deadeye to connect it with.

 

Cheers mate I'm going to do a bit of research into these as they look useful. Does anybody sell the rings already made up and spliced? Do you still use big impact blocks or are you favouring these x rings nowadays for most scenarios?

I've been using the x rings for 2 months now. I've not used or even thought to myself a pulley would have been a better tool for the job! To be honest the way things are I cannot see me using nothing but the X rings in the future.

 

Those that do buy the rings under Antal, and yes there the same product! but they don't come under use in tree work. The rings have been re labeled for that very reason! Insurance purposes ect!!

Antal rings do come under tree work, I use them for tree work therefore....

 

They have been re labelled for marketing purposes

 

Antal make them and the single difference is the lettering

 

My insurance company aren't going to give a monkeys that mine say Antal and your say X

Really, even on large dismantles rigging off say 300kg limbs/snatching timber you still use these x rings rather than a large impact block?

That's not what I've been informed mate. David the Xman could probably shed more light than me but as far as I'm aware when labeled with Antal the come under marine use!!

Quite happily all day long with doubled beast rings.

 

Here is about a 200kg log, the bend radios is what you should be thinking about with heavier loads. The doubles beast rings has the same bend radios as an impact block.
