Stainless Steel Rigging Hardware
Stainless Steel Turnbuckles & Terminals
9 products
Turnbuckles, also called rigging screws, adjust the length and tension of wire rope, rod and cable. This category covers open-frame turnbuckles with jaw ends (SS9301) or eye and hook ends (SS930), a closed-body jaw and jaw turnbuckle (SS4820), pipe turnbuckles (SS4824, SS4823) and the terminals that complete a wire system: eye (SS935), welded fork (SS933), jaw (SS4825) and threaded terminals with nut (SS932). All are made in AISI 316 stainless steel except SS4820, whose grade (304 or 316) is confirmed at quotation. Typical uses are architectural wire balustrades, shade sails, fences, signage and marine rigging. German dimensional standards such as DIN 1480 for forged open-body turnbuckles and DIN 1478 for pipe bodies are common references, and ASTM F1145 covers turnbuckles in the US market. Power Honour can supply the range under a private label or to a drawing.

Frequently asked questions
- Frame or pipe turnbuckle: what is the difference?
- A frame (open-body) turnbuckle lets you see how much thread is engaged at each end, which makes setting and checking tension straightforward. A pipe (closed-body) turnbuckle hides the threads inside a tube for a cleaner look, which is popular on architectural balustrades. Both types can carry jaw, eye, hook or terminal ends.
- Which end fittings should I choose?
- Jaw ends pin directly to padeyes, tangs and eye terminals, and eye ends connect through a shackle or thimble. Hook ends are quick to fit but can disengage if the line goes slack, so they suit lighter, non-critical uses. Terminal ends (eye, fork or threaded) attach directly to the wire and remove a separate fitting from the assembly.
- How are wire terminals attached?
- Terminals of this kind are generally swaged or crimped onto the wire with suitable tooling, or fitted with a mechanical system, depending on the design. The attachment method, die size and wire construction all affect the strength of the termination, so they should be agreed with the supplier. The terminals in this range are supplied with dimensions but no published load ratings.
- Why are most of these turnbuckles listed in AISI 316?
- Turnbuckles and terminals are usually installed outdoors, often near the sea, and threads and crevices are where corrosion starts. The molybdenum in 316 improves resistance to chloride pitting compared with 304. For SS4820 the grade should be confirmed when quoting.
- What should a turnbuckle RFQ include?
- Give the code, thread size, end combination, quantity, and the minimum and maximum length needed. For wire systems, state the wire diameter and construction and how terminals will be attached. Thread-hand requirements, finish and private-label packaging should also be listed.
