Lifeline Adjusters - Short

Hayn Lifeline Adjusters (Short) are compact Type 316 stainless steel swage-terminal adjusters for lifeline tensioning in installations where fitting space is limited, available in machine swage and Handy Crimp stud configurations for wire from 1/8" through 1/4".

Strong Where It Matters

Lifeline Adjusters - Short

The short adjuster covers the same wire size range as the long version but in a more compact overall length, with open lengths from 4-1/4" to 4-7/8" depending on wire size, making it the right choice where clearance between the stanchion base and the pelican hook or gate fitting is tight. Both right hand and left hand thread options are available across the range, accommodating the opposing thread directions common in standard lifeline assemblies. Available in machine swage configuration for imperial wire from 1/8" through 1/4" and metric wire from 4mm through 5mm, with Handy Crimp stud options for 1/8" and 3/16" wire.

Engineered In America Every Hayn fitting is designed and manufactured at our facility in Rocky Hill, Connecticut — the same American workmanship that has set the standard for stainless steel rigging hardware since 1950.
Cold-Worked Production Hayn fittings are cold-worked, not cast. That distinction matters: the cold-working process refines grain structure, increases fatigue resistance, and produces a fundamentally stronger component — one built to perform when the load comes on it.
Precision Manufacturing Our Rocky Hill production floor runs CNC vertical mills, CNC lathes, large-capacity mill-turn centers, and waterjet cutting systems — all configured to produce hardware that meets exact specifications, every time.
75+ Years of Excellence Hayn has been engineering and manufacturing marine and architectural rigging hardware since 1950. That track record isn't just history, it's the design knowledge, failure data, and continuous improvement that goes into every product we make. 
  • Type 316 stainless steel construction for superior saltwater corrosion resistance
