National Mfg N221-861 Hook Eye Turnbuckle 0.25x7.5in 90LB

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N221-861 is a hook and eye turnbuckle used to tension, adjust, or tighten cables, ropes, and rods in mechanical and structural applications. It measures 0.25 inches in diameter by 7.5 inches in body length and carries a rated load capacity of 90 pounds. The zinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor and sheltered outdoor use. This hardware is commonly installed by general contractors, riggers, maintenance technicians, and experienced DIYers working on tensioning assemblies.

This turnbuckle is suited for light-duty tensioning tasks such as guy wire stabilization, fence tightening, awning cable systems, and general rigging where a 90-pound load rating is sufficient. Sold in bulk packaging with a package quantity of 10 units, it is a practical choice for contractors or maintenance operations that require multiple pieces on a single job or want to stock spares.

Key Features

• Hook and eye end fittings allow connection to a fixed anchor point on one end and a looped cable or rod on the other
• 90-pound load capacity suitable for light-duty tensioning applications
• Zinc finish provides corrosion resistance for sheltered environments
• 0.25-inch diameter body with 7.5-inch length for moderate travel adjustment
• Bulk pack of 10 units per package reduces per-unit cost on multi-point installations

Compatibility

Designed as a standard light-duty hook and eye turnbuckle for general tensioning and rigging applications where a 0.25-inch, 90-pound-rated zinc hardware fitting is specified.

Installation Notes

Turnbuckles should be installed by qualified tradespeople or experienced installers familiar with tensioning hardware and applicable load requirements. Before installation, verify that the rated load capacity of 90 pounds meets or exceeds the calculated working load for the application. Thread both end fittings evenly to distribute tension and prevent binding or cross-threading. Never exceed the rated load capacity, and inspect the hardware periodically for signs of deformation, corrosion, or loosening.
