Re: HELP! Breaking Lashing Wire. Why?


Ugh! The #1 reason lashing wire breaks is improper wraping at the bugnut....

The wire should pass through the two washers first only turning a 180 (half wrap). If it crosses over itself inbetween the washers, it cuts into itself when the washers are tightened.... and causes it to break.

you need to have enough wisdom to keep from making the wrong decisions but enough courage to make the right ones
