Rigging adapter
Each of the chainplates on my vessel has a single 3/8" eye 1/8" thick, and my current turnbuckles use 1/4" clevis pins.
I have seen many rigging toggles that would work (1/4" clevis - 1/4" eye) but the pin on the chainplate would be 1/4" and I have learned that would load the pin and the chainplate improperly.
Do you know of a source for 3/8" eye to 1/4" clevis rigging toggles? Or is there a better way to do this?
I also have the option of using turnbuckles with 1/2" clevis pins, but that would still be the same situation (3/8" eye to 1/2" clevis), not to mention the increased unneeded weight.
The minimum breaking load on the system is about 1900lbs.
Thanks in advance,
Matthew Wallace
