The 1/2″ Jaw & Jaw Handy Lock Turnbuckle is unique in that it locks and adjusts without tools, cotter pins, or check nuts. The 1/2″ Handy Lock is constructed with a tubular body instead of an open body like the 01 and 02 Series. Two flip out handles provide tool free adjustment with ease. Close the handles and lock the turnbuckle. The Handy Lock has all the features needed for easy adjustment in a compact package. There are no sharp points to catch lines or tear sails, just flip the levers out to adjust and in to lock down. The 1/2″ Handy Lock is ideal for backstays. It is also great for inner forestays instead of a larger more complicated/expensive Hyfield lever. Made in USA.
