Crosby 2″ x 24″ HG-228 Jaw & Jaw Turnbuckle – 37000 lbs WLL – #1033054

Description

Crosby HG-228 Jaw & Jaw Turnbuckles

The Crosby HG-228 Jaw & Jaw Turnbuckles are designed for maximum security in heavy-duty inline tensioning. With forged jaw ends on both sides, they provide a positive clevis-to-clevis connection for structural, rigging, or lifting applications. Each unit is forged, heat-treated, and hot-dip galvanized for strength, fatigue resistance, and long-term corrosion protection.

Key Features

• Forged and heat-treated steel components: end fittings quenched and tempered or normalized; body normalized.
• Jaw ends feature bolt-and-nut connections (1/4″–5/8″) or pin-and-cotter assemblies (3/4″–2-3/4″).
• Modified UNJ thread on end fittings for improved fatigue properties; body uses UNC threads.
• Hot-dip galvanized finish for long-term corrosion protection.
• Rated for straight or in-line pull only.
• Fatigue rated to 20,000 cycles at 1.5× Working Load Limit.
• Lock nuts available for all sizes.
• 5:1 design factor; proof load is 2.5× WLL.
• Conforms to ASME B30.26, ASTM F-1145, and Federal Specification FF-T-791b Type 1 Form 1 Class 7.

Size & Capacity Range

• Available sizes: 5/16″ x 4-1/2″ through 2-3/4″ x 24″
• Working Load Limit (WLL): 800 lbs to 75,000 lbs

Usage & Safety Information

• Turnbuckles are intended for straight, in-line tensioning only. Side loading can result in deformation or failure.
• When used in lifting or load-bearing assemblies, threads must be fully engaged and fittings secured to prevent unthreading under vibration or movement.
• Use lock nuts, safety wire, or equivalent devices to maintain proper adjustment.

Typical Applications

• Heavy-duty tensioning and load alignment
• Structural and marine rigging systems
• Industrial assemblies requiring double-jaw connections
