The Rope End Termination Plate is designed to be used with Kernmantle rope between 7/16and 3/4 (11mm-19mm) or 5/8 to 3/4 (16mm-19mm) three strand rope. Depending on the standards of the job site, termination plates may be required when factory rope terminations are not already present. End termination plates are an effective way to make compliant terminations.

Do I need an end termination plate?
(A) Depending on the standards of the job site, termination plates may be required when factory rope terminations are not already present. ANSI Z359.1 states Knots shall not be used for load bearing end terminations. OSHA states that Tie-off using a knot in a rope lanyard or lifeline (at any location) can reduce the lifeline or lanyard strength by 50 percent or more. The lanyard or lifeline should be replaced by one which has an appropriately incorporated connector to eliminate the need for a knot.
