Taut-line hitch}

Use: 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. When under tension, however, the knot will grip the cord and will be difficult to cause to slip.

It is typically used for securing tent lines in outdoor activities involving camping, by arborists when climbing trees, for creating adjustable moorings in tidal areas, and to secure loads on vehicles. A versatile knot, the Taut-line hitch was even used by astronauts during STS-82, the second Space Shuttle mission to repair the Hubble Space Telescope.

How to tie:

Pass the working end around the anchor object. Bring it back along side of the standing part and make a half-hitch around the standing part.
Continue with another wrap inside the loop, effectively making a round turn around the standing part.
Complete with a half-hitch outside the loop, made in the same direction as the first two wraps, as for a clove hitch.
Dress by snugging the hitch firmly around the standing part. Load slowly and adjust as necessary.

-El nudo '''tensor''' es un nudo de con un seno ajustable para uso en líneas bajo tensión. Es útil cuando la longitud de una línea necesitará ser ajustada periódicamente para mantener la tensión. Se hace amarrando una vuelta de ballestrinque alrededor de la parte recta después de pasar alrededor de un objeto de anclaje. La tensión se mantiene deslizando la vuelta para ajustar el tamaño del seno, cambiando así la longitud efectiva de la parte recta sin rehacer el nudo. Cuando está bajo tensión, sin embargo, el nudo agarrará la cuerda y será difícil de hacer deslizar.<br /><br />Se utiliza típicamente para asegurar las líneas de la tienda en actividades al aire libre que implican acampar, por arboristas al subir árboles, para La creación de amarres regulables en las áreas de marea y para asegurar las cargas en los vehículos. Un nudo versátil, el nudo tensor fue utilizado incluso por los astronautas durante STS-82, la segunda misión del transbordador espacial para reparar el telescopio espacial de Hubble.
