Closed-Body Clevis-to-Wire Rope Turnbuckles—For Lifting
Use these turnbuckles in lifting applications with wire rope. Their closed body not only protects threads from damage and debris, but also keeps these turnbuckles slim enough to fit in tight spaces.
To install, fray the end of the wire rope with a marlin spike and screw the socket over the plug. You'll know the wire rope is secure if you see wire strands through the inspection hole on the turnbuckle body. Use an assembly kit (not included) to support the wire rope while you drive the plug into the wire rope end.
Zinc-plated steel is mildly corrosion resistant.
316 stainless steel is the most corrosion resistant and has excellent resistance to chemicals and salt water.
Warning: Turnbuckles must match rope diameter and be installed correctly to obtain maximum holding power. Test all assemblies for required strength before use. Do not use with coated rope unless the coating is removed.
Note: Capacities listed are for vertical lifting only.

Closed-Body Mounting-Plate-to-Wire Rope Turnbuckles—Not for Lifting
Create a wire rope railing, perimeter, or barrier. These turnbuckles have a closed body that protects them from damage and debris and keeps them slim enough to fit in tight spaces. All are 316 stainless steel, so they have excellent resistance to chemicals and salt water.
Turnbuckles with a sleeve grip fitting have a mounting plate with swivel ends. To install, mount the turnbuckle to a wall or post. Then unscrew the fitting, slide over the wire rope, and tighten the pieces together with a wrench.
Turnbuckles with a compression grip fitting have a mounting plate with pivot ends. Compress the thin shank wall with a hand tool (sold separately) to install. The compression grip fitting is also known as a hand swage fitting.
Warning: Turnbuckles must match rope diameter and be installed correctly to obtain maximum holding power. Test all assemblies for required strength before use. Do not use with coated rope unless the coating is removed.
Note: Capacities listed are for in-line pulling only.
