D Splicer
D Splicer is a Netherlands-based company that specializes in advanced rope splicing tools designed for sailors, riggers, and anyone working with modern synthetic fibers like Dyneema, Spectra, and Vectran. As synthetic ropes have become stronger and more complex, traditional splicing tools have proven insufficient, particularly with smaller diameter lines. D Splicer addresses this need by developing specialized splicing needles, fids, and related tools that allow for precise and efficient splicing, especially in tight spaces where conventional tools struggle.

D Splicer Range
D SPLICER offers a range of specialized rope splicing products for sailors and riggers. As the development of fibers for ropes has taken off in the last few decades, new splicing tools are required. Their pulling needles are complementary to conventional fids. The unique double needle clamps your line and makes it easy to pull through. Especially in situations where little space is allowed and for working with thinner ropes.
D Splicer’s product lineup includes multiple tool sets tailored for specific users:
- Sailor Set: This entry-level kit includes essentials like needles, a knife, and whipping twine, suitable for ropes between 1-16mm in diameter.
- Mariner Set: An upgraded kit that includes additional tools like the D Splicer set A-4 and small rope fids, making it versatile for rope splicing up to 16mm.
- Rigger Set: Designed for professional use, this comprehensive kit supports splicing on ropes up to 20mm and includes heavy-duty items such as XL needles, soft fids, and both polyester and Stirotex whipping twines.
Individual tools include pulling needles with double clamps, allowing for precise line control, especially in smaller diameter ropes. They also offer high-quality scissors and ceramic knives engineered to cleanly cut high-tech synthetic ropes without fraying. For more advanced needs, D Splicer provides a power hot knife to seal rope ends, as well as instructional resources on splicing techniques for modern ropes.
D Splicer’s tools are popular among both professional riggers and recreational sailors, particularly those managing high-performance and high-tension ropework on racing yachts. The brand’s dedication to quality, innovation, and specialized design has established it as a go-to resource for modern rope splicing needs.
