A knotless securing device (,) includes a main shaft (,) with at least two loops (,) connected to each end of the main shaft (,). The length of the main shaft (,) between the loops (,) is long enough to accept a plurality of wraps of a rope (,) having a diameter of substantially equal to the diameter of the main shaft (,). A locking device (,) is connected to at least one of the loops (,) to hinder movements that would jeopardize the connection between the securing device (,) and the rope (,). A length of rope (,) is secured to the device (,) by first doubling over the rope (,) to form a fold (,). One loop (,) is passed through the fold (,), and the two ends (,) are wrapped around the main shaft (,) a number of times and then passed through the other loop (,).

Knotless securing device

A knotless securing device (10) includes a main shaft (14) with at least two loops (40) connected to each end of the main shaft (14). The length of the main shaft (14) between the loops (40) is long enough to accept a plurality of wraps of a rope (30) having a diameter of substantially equal to the diameter of the main shaft (14). A locking device (54) is connected to at least one of the loops (40) to hinder movements that would jeopardize the connection between the securing device (10) and the rope (30). A length of rope (30) is secured to the device (10) by first doubling over the rope (30) to form a fold (80). One loop (40) is passed through the fold (80), and the two ends (82, 84) are wrapped around the main shaft (14) a number of times and then passed through the other loop (40).
