General Lashing Equipment · Cargo Lashing & Container Equipment
Turnbuckles are essential components in securing cargo and ensuring safe shipboard operations. The Turnbuckle TBS-3G-RB-CN is designed to work seamlessly with high-tensile forged steel lashing bars, providing a robust and reliable solution for anchoring and mooring applications. This turnbuckle features a knob-type adjustable design, making it easy to fine-tune the tension in anchor chains or mooring lines. The hot-dip galvanized coating ensures durability and resistance to corrosion, adhering to ISO 3874 standards with a tensile strength of at least 800 MPa and hardness ranging from 35 to 45 HRC. Common issues that may arise include wear, plastic deformation, or hairline cracks, which can be identified through visual inspections. Rust, salt deposits, and corrosion should also be regularly checked and addressed by cleaning all surfaces and inspecting the galvanized coating for pitting. The Turnbuckle TBS-3G-RB-CN is designed to work in conjunction with Lashing Bar LB-11 or LB-28 bars, providing a breaking load of 50 tonnes and a safe working load tension of 245 kN. For optimal performance and longevity, regular maintenance is crucial. Brake lining inspections should be conducted every six months, gear oil changes are recommended every two years, and wildcat gauging should be performed during docking. Additionally, motor insulation tests should be carried out annually to ensure all systems remain in top condition. Keeping spare brake linings on board with a lead time of 3-6 weeks can help prevent unexpected downtime. The Turnbuckle TBS-3G-RB-CN is an integral part of MacGregor’s comprehensive range of cargo securing and mooring equipment, ensuring safe and efficient operations at sea.
