Description

Tension wire ropes neatly and securely

Eye & eye turnbuckles are the simple, reliable way to take up slack and tension the galvanised wire ropes used to restrain SRM roof matting. Turning the open body draws the two forged eye ends together, and the open frame lets you check how much thread is engaged at a glance.

Hot-dip galvanised steel for corrosion resistance outdoors
Forged closed eye at each end — connect to staple plates, thimbled rope eyes or shackles
Open body for easy adjustment and inspection

Fitting tips

Open the turnbuckle out fully before fitting, so you have the maximum take-up for tensioning now and for re-tensioning at maintenance inspections.
Tension gradually and evenly along each rope run.
Not sure which size you need? Tell us your rope diameter and run lengths and we’ll recommend one.

Not for lifting. This product is designed for tensioning and restraint and is not load-rated for lifting or overhead suspension.
