Black turnbuckle DIN 1480 hook / eye M6 - M12

Our black colored turnbuckles comply with the DIN European Standard 1480 and consist of an open turnbuckle with one eye bolt and one hook bolt each with metric M6, M8, M10, M12, M14 or M16 thread.

Tested quality: The DIN 1480 turnbuckles with hook and eye can, due to the hook element and the associated low breaking load, only be used for light tensioning. Using calibrated universal tensile testing machines, the following minimum breaking forces of the turnbuckles could be determined:

• M6: 204kg
• M8: 561kg
• M10: 815kg
• M12: 1,020kg

Attention. The payload of the turnbuckles is given with a 5-fold safety factor to the minimum breaking load. The detailed test reports can be found under "Test reports" on the article page.

Easy handling: with the help of the right-hand and left-hand thread, the turnbuckle can be tightened and loosened very easily and quickly.

Areas of application: Wire rope tensioners can be optimally used as a connecting element to tension steel ropes. When using turnbuckles and wire ropes, we recommend the following combination:

• M6: wire ropes up to a thickness of 4mm
• M8: 5mm wire rope
• M10: 6mm - 8mm wire ropes
• M12: 10mm wire ropes
