Why Choose 316 Stainless Steel?
316 stainless steel contains molybdenum, which provides enhanced resistance to chlorides and corrosive chemicals. This makes it the preferred choice for marine environments, coastal installations, and applications involving exposure to saltwater or harsh chemicals. Unlike standard stainless steel, 316 SS maintains its strength and appearance even in the most demanding conditions.
Installation Tips:
When installing turnbuckles, ensure equal thread engagement on both ends for balanced load distribution. Never extend the turnbuckle beyond the point where threads are visible, as this compromises strength. For critical applications, use lock wire or cotter pins to prevent loosening under vibration.
Note: Sold in packs. Select your size based on your application requirements. Metric threading provides precise adjustment and is commonly used in international marine and industrial applications.
