NOTE: The term “Velcro®” is used in a generic fashion for hook and loop fastener. While the rigger
should replace the Velcro® to match the original configuration, this installation has proven superior
for its holding ability and the secure line stow configuration.
1.0 DISASSEMBLY:
1.1 Mark the location of the old Velcro® [Figure A].
1.2 Remove the old Velcro®.
2.0 REASSEMBLY:
2.1 Cut a new piece(s) of Velcro® to match the original.
2.2 Position the Velcro® to the original location.
2.3 Sew the hook Velcro® with a single needle machine.
Sew an additional row of stitching down the center of the Velcro® [Figure B]. This keeps the
center from lifting during use and tearing out the edge stitching.
2.4 Position the loop line
stow Velcro® to match the
hook and sew along the
edge, overstitching the
ends [Figure C].
3.0 INSPECTION:
3.1 Check that the location of
Velcro® is the same as the
original.
