NOTE: When ordering, replace XX with Type in Catalog Number. Example: TB34JJ6BNK for jaw-jaw end fittings with 6” take up. BNK suffix not valid for Type EE turnbuckles. Add “LN” suffix if jam nuts are required. The torque required to rotate the boss of 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: 3/4 turnbuckle under 4,000 lb tension T = 2(0.16 x 0.75 x 4000 / 12) = 80 ft-lb
