Value Collection A996959 Jaw Eye Turnbuckle Steel

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION A996959 is a jaw and eye turnbuckle used to tension, adjust, and secure cables, rods, and rigging assemblies. It features a 1,200-pound working load limit, a 3/8-inch thread diameter, and a 6-inch take-up range, giving installers meaningful adjustment travel for tensioning applications. The closed length measures 11.5 inches. Constructed from steel, this turnbuckle is suited for structural, mechanical, and rigging work where a reliable threaded tensioning device is required. Installation is handled by general contractors, riggers, and maintenance trades.

This turnbuckle is appropriate for light-to-medium-duty tensioning tasks including cable bracing, guy-wire tensioning, and structural tie-back applications. The jaw-and-eye configuration allows one end to attach to a fixed anchor point via the eye fitting while the jaw end connects to a clevis pin or similar hardware. It is commonly used in both interior and exterior settings where periodic tension adjustment is needed. Sold in a package quantity of two.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by riggers, general contractors, or maintenance mechanics. Always de-tension and relieve load from the rigging assembly before adjusting or replacing a turnbuckle. Ensure that the jaw pin is properly secured with a cotter pin or locking hardware to prevent accidental disengagement under load. Follow applicable ASME B30 or OSHA rigging standards for load ratings and inspection intervals.
