Description
Bronze Toggle & Blank represents advanced rigging hardware engineering, combining the proven Sta-Lok Forged Turnbuckle design with sophisticated toggle articulation for applications requiring full movement capability in two planes. This elegant assembly features a precision Threaded Strap Toggle (B18) at one termination with a blank end at the other, providing the ideal solution for complex rigging systems demanding maximum angular flexibility combined with custom termination options.
Available in seven thread sizes from 1/4" to 3/4" UNF with comprehensive toggle specifications, Bronze Toggle & Blank accommodates demanding rigging applications where multi-directional articulation is essential. The toggle widths range from 6.4mm to 19.1mm with corresponding pin dimensions and adjustment capabilities from 76mm to 168mm, ensuring optimal performance for complex load vectors and rigging geometries.
The advanced Sta-Lok Forged Turnbuckle design exceeds the breaking load of today's high-strength compacted strand wire ropes through superior forging and machining processes utilising high-strength bronze alloy construction. The aerodynamic design philosophy creates one of the strongest and most elegant bronze turnbuckles available on the world market today, optimising strength-to-weight ratios whilst accommodating the complex articulation requirements of toggle connections.
The precision Threaded Strap Toggle provides full articulation in two planes, essential for applications such as running rigging, adjustable stays, and complex systems where load direction varies significantly throughout sailing operations. The toggle action eliminates binding and stress concentrations that can occur with fixed connections, whilst the blank termination allows for custom rigging solutions including eye swages, or mechanical connections to suit specific installation requirements.
