A Turk's head knot is a decorative knot with a basket weave pattern surrounding a cylinder shaped object. The name is used to describe the general family of all such knots rather than one individual knot. The most common use for the Turk's head is to mark the "king spoke" of a vessel's wheel; when this spoke is upright the rudder is in a central position. Otherwise, the knot is used mostly for decoration, and occasionally as anti-chafing protection. The number of leads of a Turk's head is the number of crossings it makes as it goes around the circumference of the cylinder. The number of bends is the number of strands along the long axis of the cylinder. Depending on the number of leads and bends, a Turk's head may be tied using a single strand or multiple strands. Mathematically, the number of strands is the greatest common divisor of the number of leads and the number of bends; the knot may be tied with a single strand if and only if the two numbers are coprime. The knot was originally named because of its resemblance to a turban.  6, fiche 3, Anglais, - Turk%27s%20head

The Turk's head knot is commonly used as a covering knot. Members of the Boy Scouts of America have taken a liking to tying a five bight, three lead variation which they call a "woggle."  7, fiche 3, Anglais, - Turk%27s%20head

Le nœud de tête de Turc est celui de la bague de foulard. Pour la description, il faut aller voir du côté des marins : Ce nœud génial peut être serré sur lui même ou sur un objet de petit diamètre et répété plusieurs fois sur lui même. Il grossit alors à chaque nouvelle épaisseur. Quand il est assez gros, on le trempe dans une bonne peinture et on le laisse sécher. Il sert alors de lest pour les lances amarres. Autrement dit, il sert à lester le bout de la ficelle (fine de préférence) que lancent les marins depuis le pont d'un bateau [...] vers le quai [...].  3, fiche 3, Français, - n%26oelig%3Bud%20de%20t%C3%AAte%20de%20turc

Common four-sided shaped wire, such as squares, oblongs or keystone shape, are frequently produced on cold-rolling equipment known as "Turks-head" machine. This consists of four hardened-steel rolls set in planes at right angles to each other. The narrow face of the rolls, as set in the framework, is adjustable on the same plane so that the assembly of the overlapping roll edges facing each other will project the contour of the opening so formed, into the desired shape of the cross-section of the wire to be made. The process wire, of a size somewhat larger than the finished size desired, is pointed and pulled through the Turks-head, being thus rolled to shape and size, after which it is coiled on a regular wire-drawing take-up block.  2, fiche 5, Anglais, - turks%20head

Lorsque le câble quitte la forme, il entre dans une tête de turc constituée de quatre galets disposés à des angles bien précis de manière à former un orifice trapézoïdal [...]. Les galets écrasent le câble et lui donnent la géométrie désirée.  3, fiche 5, Français, - t%C3%AAte%20de%20Turc
