Barrell Strainers
Also called turnbuckles, these are used to keep the tension in wire ropes on netting frameworks. They have a hook at one end and an eye at the other, with a spring mechanism in between. You’d probably want to use one for every 10 metres of 2mm wire rope.
We sell M5, M6 and M8 barrel strainers in high-grade stainless and galvanised steel.
To install, open fully and hook on to a corner fixing, before threading wire rope through the eye – then pull tight. Make the wire nice and taut by closing the barrel strainer.
All prices exclude delivery. All deliveries to Scottish Highlands or outside mainland UK will be charged extra.
