end fittings may not be available for all sizes.)

| Specify
your ratchet... |
| 1 |
Choose
the barrel diameter and screw size to suit your needs based on
breaking strengths and dimensions shown on the dimensions
page. Apply
in straight tension only with a minimum safty factor of 3 to
1. |
| |
| 2 |
Specify
the barrel length as determined by amount of take-up required. Barrel
length = Required take-up plus 2 times the screw diameter.
(Round final calculated barrel length up to nearest even
inch.)
Example: Required Take-up = 8 inches.
Screw diameter = 1 inch.
8 inches + (2 x 1 inch) = 10 inches
The barrel length would be 10 inches. |
