About this asset

This Revit detail component provides a precise 2D elevation of a jaw and eye turnbuckle for structural drafting and documentation. The component illustrates a standard jaw and eye turnbuckle, featuring a central threaded body with visible internal threading details and opposing end fittings. One end terminates in a closed eye loop, while the other features a jaw fitting secured by a pin, representing typical hardware used for tensioning cables, rods, or wire rope assemblies. The linework is clean and vector-based, designed to integrate seamlessly into construction documentation sets. It maintains accurate geometric proportions for standard rigging components, ensuring clarity when used in enlarged details or section views within a project file.

The download is a 2 MB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

Load this family into your Revit project and place it directly into drafting views or onto sheets as a 2D detail component. Because it is a detail item, it will not appear in 3D views or schedules but will remain visible across all relevant drafting scales. Users can easily align the component with existing structural lines, cables, or bracing systems, adjusting the placement to suit specific connection details in structural or architectural drawing packages.

This hardware component is essential for architects and structural engineers detailing balustrades, cable-stayed structures, or industrial bracing systems. It is most effective when used in construction documentation at larger scales, such as 1:5 or 1:10, to clearly communicate assembly methods to contractors. Professionals searching for rigging, structural fasteners, or specific tensioning hardware will find this file highly useful for annotating construction drawings, providing a professional look to technical details in residential, commercial, or industrial project types.
