Solid American Made Quality

You can immediately feel the difference in weight and build quality compared to imported versions. The forging is clean, threads are smooth, and the galvanization looks even. Perfect for my backyard fence tensioning project.

Perfect for marine use

Using these on my boat trailer rigging. The electro-galvanized finish holds up well against salt spray, though I still rinse them after every trip. The drop-forged construction gives me peace of mind under load.

Good but requires maintenance

The turnbuckle itself is strong and well-made. However, if you leave it outside in wet conditions without occasional oiling, the threads can seize up over time. Just remember to maintain it.

Exactly as described

Bought this to tighten a sagging gate cable. It was easy to install and adjusted perfectly. The hardware feels very secure and I expect it to last for many years.

Job site reliable

We use these daily for scaffolding and temporary bracing. They tighten smoothly without binding and haven't failed us yet. The open body allows for easy visual inspection of the threads.

Great product, slightly pricey

These turnbuckles are excellent. Very sturdy and the open design makes installation quick. I deducted one star only because they are more expensive than big box store options, but you definitely get what you pay for in durability.

5 FAQ

Q: Does this come with jam nuts included?

A: No, this open type turnbuckle is sold as a standalone unit. Jam nuts or locking clips are sold separately to secure the turnbuckle once the desired tension is achieved.

Q: Is this turnbuckle suitable for overhead lifting applications?

A: While this is a high-quality rigging screw, always consult a qualified engineer and adhere to local safety regulations (such as OSHA) before using any rigging hardware for overhead lifting. Ensure the Working Load Limit exceeds your specific application requirements.

Q: What is the difference between electro-galvanized and hot-dip galvanized?

A: Electro-galvanized provides a smoother, thinner coating ideal for indoor or moderate outdoor use where precise threading is critical. Hot-dip galvanized offers a thicker coating for harsher corrosive environments but may affect thread fit slightly.

Q: What size wrench do I need for the body?

A: The required wrench size depends on the specific diameter of the turnbuckle you purchase (e.g., 3/8", 1/2", etc.). Please refer to the dimension chart in the product images for the exact across-the-flats measurement for your selected size.

Q: Can I use this with stainless steel cable?

A: Yes, you can use it with stainless steel cable. However, be aware that using dissimilar metals (carbon steel turnbuckle with stainless cable) can lead to galvanic corrosion in wet environments. Regular inspection is recommended.
