10 Pack M4 Turnbuckle Hook and Eye, 304 Stainless Steel

small, 304 ss

We had a temporary canopy style carport that we used to keep lumber dry while our covered deck was being worked on. Unfortunately there were some heavy winds and some of the tensioners ended up coming off and getting lost. The ones that came with it were pretty basic, but I saw how the took the slack out and made it stronger (when assembled correctly) and so when I saw these I recognized their usefulness and decided to order them. I may use for clothesline between posts , or to keep tension in our trellis for the blackberries and grapes. These are higher quality than the ones I had before. The turnbuckles turn freely and have lock nuts. The threads are clean and uniform with some play, but not excessive. The parts are clean and free of debris or excessive oil. AT $1 apieces these seem like a good deal since sometimes just a single stainless bolt can cost that much!

Nope! Dont hold up in moderate wind speeds 25-35. They slip and release, leaving a mess to clean up.

Well-Made Turnbuckles That Work Exactly as Intended These stainless steel turnbuckles are solidly built and operate smoothly. The threading is clean, and the adjustment range—from 4.8 to 7.2 inches—is practical for a variety of everyday uses. The pack includes 10 pieces, which is a good value for anyone working on multiple projects. The material is stainless steel 304, which offers good corrosion resistance and strength. They’re suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, though they may not hold up as well in coastal environments with high salt exposure. For general garden, fencing, or home improvement applications, they’re more than adequate. Installation is straightforward. The hook and eye design makes it easy to attach and adjust tension by simply twisting. They’re also easy to remove or reposition if needed, which adds flexibility to your setup. I’ve used them for securing wire fencing and hanging shade sails, and they’ve held tension reliably without slipping. They’re also useful for clotheslines, cable railings, and other light to medium-duty tasks. Overall, these turnbuckles are well-made, easy to use, and perform exactly as described. Just keep in mind the environmental limitations if you're planning to use them near saltwater.
