Parts of Turnbuckles

Turnbuckle is mainly composed of a turnbuckle body and an end fitting with its own threads, which can be fitted with nuts at both ends if required.

There are two types of turnbuckle bodies: open body, where the threads of the end fitting are not wrapped in the body and cannot be seen, and closed body, where the threads of the end fitting are enclosed in the body. The other is the closed body, the threads of the end fittings are enclosed in the body, and there is a hole in the center for inserting a straight tool to rotate the body. when the two ends of the end fittings are fixed, you can turn the turnbuckle body to expand or contract the distance of the end fittings to adjust the tension.

End fittings are various:

Eye ends, threaded rod ends are ring-shaped, for galvanized turnbuckle, eye ends ring is generally closed, unless it is very small specifications, there are forged, there are welded. For stainless steel turnbuckle, the eye ends are generally welded. This eye end fitting is very strong.

Hook ends, is the most convenient and quick to connect and release end fittings, but of course will not be as easy to slip off as eye ends.

Jaw ends are easy to connect and release, yet safe and secure.

Stub/Thread ends are steel rods with standard threads at the end, used to separate or push objects apart.

Nuts, you can install nuts on both ends of the end fittings to prevent loosening.
