General Lashing Equipment · Cargo Lashing & Container Equipment
The Turnbuckle TBS-B from MacGregor Finland Oy is designed with a knob-type adjustable mechanism that ensures precise tension adjustments, making it suitable for anchor chains and mooring lines. This turnbuckle is manufactured from high-tensile forged steel with a hot-dip galvanized coating that meets the ISO 3874 standard, ensuring a tensile strength of at least 800 MPa and a hardness rating of 35-45 HRC. The product is part of a range that includes various cargo securing equipment such as fully automatic twistlocks, manual twistlocks, and lashing bars. Common failure points include issues with the locking mechanism, visible wear, rust, and corrosion. Regular inspections are necessary to ensure that the locking mechanism rotates smoothly and that there is no visible wear or deformation. Additionally, the galvanized coating should be inspected for pitting and corrosion. Maintenance practices include lubricating moving parts and conducting regular inspections to ensure the equipment remains in optimal condition.
