English term or phrase: reeved eye
In the case of slung tubulars a wire rope grip or other approved device should be used above the reeved eye that forms the choke. In addition a tie wrap of robust design should be used on the reeved eye of the sling
to prevent the eye from slipping over the rope grip. This arrangement prevents the bundle from coming slack when it’s landed.
