C. Sherman Johnson Splice Eye to Splice Eye Fitting

The C. Sherman Johnson Splice Eye to Splice Eye Fitting (Model LS-3200) is a purpose-built connector designed for serious boaters and marine enthusiasts who demand reliability on the water. This fitting bridges modern high-tech Dyneema line to traditional stainless steel lifeline systems, eliminating weak points that can compromise safety during rough conditions or emergency situations. Whether you're upgrading aging rigging or retrofitting a vessel with contemporary line technology, this splice fitting delivers the connection integrity that experienced sailors and riggers depend on.

Engineered by C. Sherman Johnson Marine—a trusted name in marine hardware for decades—this fitting features a precision splice eye-to-splice eye design that accommodates spliced Dyneema line at both termination points. The compact, lightweight construction (just 0.05 lbs) minimizes weight aloft, a critical consideration for cruising sailors focused on performance and stability. The stainless steel construction resists saltwater corrosion and UV degradation, ensuring years of dependable service in harsh marine environments without maintenance or replacement.

This fitting is ideal for upgrading standing rigging, lower lifelines, or any application where you're transitioning from conventional wire or rope to modern Dyneema alternatives. Installation is straightforward for boaters with basic rigging experience—simply splice your Dyneema line to the appropriate diameter, thread through the fitting, and secure with a traditional splice or loop. Note that line is sold separately; the fitting itself provides the critical connection interface between your spliced terminations and existing deck hardware or chainplates.
