Turnbuckle DIN 1478 jaw-jaw

The DIN 1478 jaw-jaw turnbuckle (tensioning screw, tubular body) tensions rods and braces between two points where each side has a plate, a lug or an eye with a hole. The jaw is slipped over the plate or eye and secured with a pin, so the connection can be released again once the pin is removed. It suits bracing of halls and canopies, tie rods in steel structures and guying of posts and masts. Turning the tube with its right-hand and left-hand thread changes the distance between the jaws smoothly.

Forged, class 4.6, seven sizes with threads M8 to M30, overall length from 220 mm (M8) to 580 mm (M30). It differs from the open DIN 1480 turnbuckle by its closed tubular body, and from the eye-eye 4478B, eye-hook 4478A and eye-jaw 4478J versions by a jaw at both ends. The WLL is 300 kg (M8) to 4800 kg (M30); the values are indicative only and the product has not been tested.
