Wire rope abuses during shipment creat serious problems. One of the more common
causes is improper fastening of rope end to reel, e.g. nailing through the rope end. These
photos show two acceptable methods: A) one end of a wire "noose" holds the rope, and
the other end is secrured to the reel; and B) the rope end is held in place by a J-bolt or U-
bolt that is fixed to the reel.
