The Roringstek is a knot for attaching a line to an anchor ring.

application

The Roringstek is mainly used to permanently connect a line to a ring. In addition, interlocking lines, anchor cables and tripping or warping lines can also be attached to round, smooth objects (logs, sticks).
Rings that hang vertically on the harbor wall come horizontally with every pull with every wave and thus rub the line through. The Roringstek has the advantage that it sticks to the ring and does not rub.

The anchor bend is one of the strongest Steke and can be solved easily.

Knot

A round trip through the ring is made with the end of the rope . With the free end you go around the fixed part and put it from the side on which the fixed end lies through the round turn and pull the knot tight.

The end of the rope should be secured with a Zeising. Often half a stroke is made before the Zeising . Alternatively, a bowline is tied with the end of the rope and the fixed part to secure the knot.

The double overhand knot is basically the basis of this knot. If the rod is pulled off, you can see that it is a double overhand knot.

Instructions (Roringstek with an additional half punch)

Double Roringstek

If the knot is no longer to loosen, the end is driven twice through the round trip (Ashley # 1843).

Alternatives

  • Lines under tension are tied with the round turn with two half- turns.
  • The bowline is suitable for immobile rings or objects .
  • The stopper is suitable for pulling sideways .
  • The Trilene knot is ideal for tying a fishing line to a ring . This is a Roringstek with additional turns around the fixed part.
