Sta-Lok® Tension Forks (Standard Capacity)
Our most commonly used end fitting. Available in left
and right-hand UNF threads 5/16" to 1". Each fork
comes with a conical nut (CN) and double headed clevis pin. The combination of a left-hand Tension
Fork on one end of a rod assembly with a right-hand Tension Fork on the other end provides the most
symmetrical design and most economical method of adjusting
and tensioning rod rigging systems. See our Standard Assemblies page
for information on our standard tension fork assemblies. Also click on the Tension Fork photo for
