Stub End Turnbuckle

Pull rod bracing tight and keep it tight with a stub end turnbuckle.

A turnbuckle is a threaded body with an end screwed into each side. Wind the body and both ends draw in together, tensioning whatever they're connected to. On these stub end (stub/stub) turnbuckles, both ends are plain steel stubs rather than eyes, hooks or jaws. Also known as a bottle screw or rigging screw.

Two ways to use them:

• Weld-on – weld the stubs to your bracing rod, bar or plate, then wind the body to tension the brace.
• With threaded rod – unscrew the stubs and run our Galvanised Threaded Rod into the body instead. The M12 and M16 bodies suit our M12 and M16 rod.

Sizes:

• M12
• M16
• M20

Features:

• Stub ends on both sides: weld them on or swap them for threaded rod
• Wind the body to adjust tension after install
• Sold each

Common applications:

• Rod bracing in steel frames, sheds and carports
• Tie rods and tension members
• Adjustable bracing made up from threaded rod

Tip: Need a longer rod? Our Galvanised Joining Nuts join two lengths end to end.
