This Turnbuckle Body US Type is manufactured through drop forging – a process that shapes heated stainless steel under high pressure, creating a dense, uniform internal structure with no porosity or voids. The result is a body that offers superior strength, impact resistance, and fatigue life compared to cast or machined alternatives.
Crafted from high-quality stainless steel with a clean, smooth surface finish, this body is designed to accept standard US Type end fittings (jaws, eyes, or hooks). It is the preferred choice for heavy-duty rigging, marine mooring, structural bracing, and industrial tensioning systems where reliability under load is critical.
We also offer custom drop forged stainless steel products – turnbuckles, shackles, eye bolts, connectors, and fittings.
If you have a specific design in mind, we can work from your drawings or samples to produce.
Available in a range of sizes. For more information, custom inquiries, or to discuss your project, please contact us.
