Who made these titanium turnbuckles?

Post by oozee »

Hello! Who made these titanium turnbuckles? When I purchased them they came with a lifetime warranty. I wonder if the company is still around. Thanks!

Also anyone knows who made those titanium ones with the hole in the middle?

The ones in top pic look like Lunsford "Punisher" turnbuckles and the ones in the bottom pic look like Tecnacraft, with the hole.
Hope you're doin' something fun.

Top turnbuckles have the Punisher look, could be authentic... or could be from any one of the numerous companies that make the exact same style these days.

Bottom turnbuckles would be from Thunder Tiger. Tecnacraft didn't machine a thread orientation groove into the body of their turnbuckles.

Yes, Lunsford, I recall it now.

They are no more, sadly: https://www.rctech.net/forum/electric-off-road/1105849-so-lunsford-no-more.html

Yup, we know: https://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.php?t=47831 It's really unfortunate, but understandable.
