Slide on Spreader Ends
Is this the best solution for discontinuous rigging spreader end connections?
This is a slide on spreader end that can then take spliced loops. We are doing this on an early B&R rig.
All the segments can be setup with adjusters, turnbuckles or even lashings. Interesting as this B&R in steel has some non-adjustable segments. We prefer to do Continuous rigs as it makes better sense with synthetics, but sometimes you don't have the option and this is a better way to go.
Simple and elegant.
