Plan the right fit before choosing
Identify the thread direction and size required
Turnbuckle assemblies can require fittings with opposite thread directions. Right-hand and left-hand options are both represented, so matching the existing or specified connection direction is an essential first step. After confirming direction, compare the stated thread size and UNC-2A classification with the compatible hardware.
- Right-hand options are available in 1/4-20, 3/8-16, 5/8-11, and 3/4-10 sizes.
- Left-hand options are available in 1/4-20, 5/8-11, 3/4-10, and 1 in.-8 sizes.
- Several products specify UNC-2A threads for compatibility checks.

- Stubs are offered with right-hand and left-hand threads.
- Eye fittings are offered with right-hand and left-hand threads.
