knot and hitch

 Knot
• A knot is a method for fastening or
securing linear material such as rope by
tying or interweaving. It may consist of a
length of one or more segments of rope,
string, webbing, twine, strap or even chain
interwoven so as to create in the line the
ability to bind to itself or to some other
object - the "load".
 Webbing
• Webbing is a strong fabric woven as a flat strip
or tube of varying width and fibers often used in
place of rope. It is a versatile component used in
climbing, furniture manufacturing, automobile
safety, auto racing, towing, parachuting, military
apparel, and many other fields.
 Twine
• Twine is a strong thread or string
composed of two or more smaller strands
or yarns twisted together.
 Strap
• A strap, sometimes also called strop, is
an elongated flap or ribbon, usually of
fabric or leather.
 Categories
• Knots may belong to more than one category.
• Bend
– A knot uniting two lines. A bend knot is a knot used to join two
lengths of rope.
• Binding
– A knot that restricts object(s) by making multiple winds. A
binding knot is a knot that may be used to keep an object or
multiple loose objects together
• Coil
– Knots used to tie up lines for storage.
• Decorative knot
– A complex knot exhibiting repeating patterns often constructed
around and enhancing an object.
 Categories
• Hitch
– A knot tied to a post, cable, ring, or spar.
• Lashing
– A knot used to hold (usually) poles together.
• Loop
– A knot used to create a closed circle in a line.
• Plait (or Braid)
– A number of lines interwoven in a simple
regular pattern.
 Categories
• Slip (or Running)
– A knot tied with a hitch around one of its parts,
contrasted. with a loop, which is closed with a bend. A
slip knot can be closed, a loop remains the same
size.
• Seizing
– A knot used to hold two lines or two parts of the same
line together.
• Sennit
– A number of lines interwoven in a complex pattern.
 Categories
• Splice
– A knot formed by interweaving strands of rope rather
than whole lines. More time consuming but usually
stronger than simple knots.
• Stopper
– A knot tied to hold a line through a hole.
• Trick
– A knot that is used as part of a magic trick, a joke, or
a puzzle.
• Whipping
– A binding knot used to prevent another line from
fraying.

 Clove hitch
(simpul manuk/cincin ayam)
• It consists of two identical half hitches made
successively around an object. It is most effective used
as a crossing knot. Although it can be used as a binding
knot, it is not particularly secure in that role.
• It should not be relied on with rope that is thin or very
slippery, as it can work itself loose, especially under a
swinging or rotating load.
• However, for this very reason, the knot is useful in
situations where the length of the running end needs to
be adjustable.
• It can also jam and become difficult to untie under some
situations.

 Lashing (ikatan)
• A lashing is an arrangement of rope used
to secure two or more items together in a
somewhat rigid manner.
• Lashings are most commonly applied to
timber poles, and are commonly
associated with the scouting movement
and with sailors.
Timber Hitch (lilit balak)
 Square lashing (ikatan seraya)
• Square lashing steps;
– Begin with a clove hitch on the vertical pole beneath
the horizontal pole and tuck the loose end under the
wrapping.
– Wrap in a square fashion about three times around
the poles.
– Frap two or three times, pulling often to work the joint
as tight as possible.
– Tie two half hitches around the horizontal pole
– Cinch the half hitches into a clove hitch, an additional
clove hitch may be added if desired.
Square lashing
(ikatan seraya)
 Diagonal lashing (ikatan serong)
• The timber hitch is a knot used to attach a
single length of rope to a piece of wood. This
knot is easily undone after use.
– Begin with a timber hitch around the juncture of the
two poles.
– Make three turns in each direction - tightening
steadily as you go.
– Make two frapping turns, tightening the joint as
much a possible.
– To end, make two half hitches
– Cinch the half hitches into a clove hitch

 Tripod lashing
(ikatan silang tungku)
• To bind three poles together, for the construction
of a tripod. ---- To bind three poles together that
contact at the same point in a structure
 Tripod lashing
(ikatan silang tungku)
Tripod lashing
 Sheer lashing
(ikatan silang gunting)
• A sheer lashing is often used to bind
adjacent poles together.
• It is also a good way to reinforce a broken
or weak pole.
• The frapping turns used to tighten the
lashing may be omitted and replaced with
wedges inserted between the poles.
Sheer lashing
 Loop
• A loop is a knot used to create a closed
circle in a line.

 Slip knot
• The former kind are generally created by
attaching a rope to itself, creating a loop
which can be tightened later.

 Reef knot (buku sila)
• The reef knot or square knot is a
common and simple binding knot.
• To tie a reef knot, tie a left-handed
overhand knot and then a right-handed
overhand knot or vice versa.
 Stopper knot
• The term stopper knot (or simply
stopper) has three distinct meanings in
the context of knotting and cordage.
 Constrictor knot
• The Constrictor knot is one of the most
effective binding knots.
• Simple and secure, it is a harsh knot which can
be difficult or impossible to untie once tightened.
It is made similarly to a clove hitch but with one
end passed under the other, forming an
overhand knot under a riding turn.
• The Double constrictor knot is an even more
robust variation having two riding turns.
Constrictor knot
 Cow hitch
• The cow hitch comprises two half-hitches tied in
opposing directions.
• When both the standing parts of the rope are available,
the cow hitch can be tied in the following manner:
– Form a bight and pass it through the ring from the underneath.
– Pull the head of the bight downwards, and reach through it,
grabbing both standing parts of the rope.
– Pull both standing parts of the rope through the bight.
• The cow hitch is often used to connect
loop-ended lanyards to handheld
electronic equipment, since it can be tied
without access to the ends of the fastening
loop.

 Taut-line hitch - Adjustable hitch
• The Taut-line hitch is an adjustable loop knot
for use on lines under tension. It is useful when
the length of a line will need to be periodically
adjusted in order to maintain tension.
• It is made by tying a Rolling hitch around the
standing part after passing around an anchor
object. Tension is maintained by sliding the hitch
to adjust size of the loop, thus changing the
effective length of the standing part without
retying the knot.
Taut-line hitch

• The Taut-line hitch is an adjustable loop

knot for use on lines under tension.
• Tension is maintained by sliding the hitch
to adjust size of the loop, thus changing
the effective length of the standing part
without retying the knot.
 Taut-line hitch

• This version is the one most often seen named "Taut-line

hitch".
• The name Tent hitch is used in some older scouting
manuals
 Taut-line hitch reversed

• This is exactly as above but with the final

hitch in the opposite direction.
 Midshipman's hitch

• This version is considered the most secure

but may be more difficult to adjust after
being heavily loaded.
Fisherman's knot (simpul himpit)
• It consists of two overhand knots wrapped
around each other.
• It requires little dexterity to tie, so is often used in
stubborn materials. When tightened, it becomes
fairly compact, and the free ends can be
cropped very close to the knot.
• These qualities make it very useful for fishing
line--it is less likely to jam a fishing rod than
many other bends, and is easier to tie with cold,
wet hands.
Fisherman's knot (simpul himpit)
 Double fisherman's knot

• Use the double fisherman's knot to tie together two

ropes of unequal sizes.
• This knot and the triple fisherman's knot are the
variations used most often in rock climbing, but other
uses include search and rescue.
 Sack knot
• A Miller's knot (also Sack knot or Bag
knot) is a binding knot used to secure the
opening of a sack or bag.
