Turnbuckle Body – Open
The Hayn Open Turnbuckle Body is a forged chromed bronze frame available in 12 thread sizes from 1/4-28 through 1-3/8-12, providing the corrosion-resistant, non-galling tensioning core for Hayn open body turnbuckle assemblies across the full range of marine and architectural cable applications.
Turnbuckle Body – Open
The forged bronze construction is the key material choice here — bronze threads against stainless steel rod ends without galling during tensioning and adjustment, which matters on a fitting that may see repeated seasonal adjustment over many years of service. The open frame design gives riggers direct visual access to thread engagement at both ends, making dockside tensioning and inspection straightforward without removing the fitting. One of the broadest open body ranges available, covering thread sizes from 1/4-28 through 1-3/8-12 with body lengths from 4-1/2" through 19-1/2", spanning the full range of wire and rod rigging applications from small production boats through large offshore vessels and architectural cable systems.
