Elegant design, exceptional performance
From its clean lines to the use of the highest grade materials and
quality finish, the
Ronstan RF148105 Calibrated Turnbuckle
Body Toggle End 5/16in Thread is engineered to deliver
performance while enhancing the appearance of any yacht, or tensile
project.
Type 10
Type 10 closed body turnbuckles have a sleek, modern profile with
no sharp edges. They are easily adjusted by turning the unique
adjustment nut, which is free to rotate within the sleeve on the
turnbuckle body, and are secured with a quick turn on the locking
nut. A sight hole is provided in the body to verify adequate thread
engagement. With fine thread and single end adjustment, Type 10
turnbuckles are much easier to adjust than conventional
turnbuckles, and the use of dissimilar but compatible metals for
the threaded components avoids the risk of thread seizure. Toggles
are designed with full lateral articulation for easy installation
and connection compatibility.
Matching threaded ends have rolled threadsRonstan rigging fittings
have rolled external threads for maximum strength and reliability -
unlike cut threads, the stainless steel bar is formed up and down
to create a thread with the grain remaining unbroken and flowing
the full length of the thread. Threads are UNF (Unified National
Fine), short pitch threads for fine adjustment and reduced
adjustment effort.
Roll swage integrity
Matching swage fittings suit industry-standard roll swaging presses
and dimensions are derived from the original 'Milspec' for maximum
integrity. They are suitable for use with modern and traditional
wire constructions, including 1x19, 7x19 and compact strand.
Wire termination options
A full range of eye, fork and toggle fittings complement the
turnbuckles to permit assembly of finished rigging elements to suit
virtually any application.
Calibrated turnbuckles
For accurate, repeatable settings of rig tension and precise
adjustment, calibrated turnbuckle models are also available for
wire sizes up to 6mm (1/4'); thread sizes 1/4', 5/16', 3/8'
UNF.
