Our marine grade stainless steel turnbuckles can be attached directly to the shade sail for additional tension.

Turnbuckles are used to attach shade sails to other types of mounting or attachment hardware (an eye bolt or diamond pad eye for example). A turnbuckle also allows for additional tensioning. Normally, a turnbuckle goes on each corner.
