  • "Turnbuckle, 7/8", Eye-Eye, Forged Steel, Diameter = .88", Take Up = 12.00" and Ult. Strength = 36,000 LBS
  • The torque required to rotate the bossof a turnbuckle under tension can be calculated by the formula:
  • T = 2 (kdW/12) ft-lb
  • Where: k = Friction factor (0.16)
  • d = Nominal thread diameter (inches)
  • W = Applied tension load (lb)
  • Example: 7/8" turnbuckle under 4,000 lb tension
  • T = 2(0.16 x .88 x 4000 / 12) = 93 ft-lb"
