Description
The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N221-952 is a stainless steel hook and eye turnbuckle designed for tightening and drawing together lines and cables in demanding environments. The body measures 1/4 inch in diameter and 7-1/2 inches in length, with a hex-shaped profile that allows adjustment by hand or with a standard wrench. Rated to a safe working load of 110 pounds, this turnbuckle is passivated for corrosion resistance, non-magnetic, and built to withstand atmospheric exposure over extended service life. Sold in bulk packs of 5 units.
This turnbuckle is suited for marine applications and other outdoor installations where corrosion resistance is critical. Typical uses include tensioning rigging lines, securing cables on docks, boat hardware, fencing, signage, and similar outdoor cable management tasks. The hook and eye configuration makes it easy to attach and detach without fully disassembling the assembly, which suits installations requiring periodic adjustment or removal.

Installation Notes
Turnbuckles of this type are typically installed by riggers, marine hardware technicians, or experienced general contractors. Before tensioning, ensure both end fittings are securely attached to anchor points rated at or above the working load of 110 pounds. Do not exceed the rated safe working load. After adjustment, verify that threaded sections remain engaged by an adequate number of threads to prevent pull-out under load.
