This type of bell rope has a pre-stretched polyester top rope, which is machine spliced in approximately 18 inches above the sally. The rest of the rope downwards is flax. These type of ropes are used in full circle change ringing.
The sallies are typically 3 feet long ( 0.92M ).The sallies are made from pure wool and can be made from a single colour through to a combination of 3 colours. Longer length sallies can be made and are charged at £18.00 per 6 inch of extra sally.
WHAT IS A MACHINE SPLICE?
The splice we use is a machine splice, which results in a slight increase in the rope diameter at the splice.
This should not be confused with a hand splice (or hard splice) which gives a large increase in the rope diameter at the splice and results in a bulky splice.
Colours available in any combination:
