Stainless Steel Tension Rod System for Point-Supported Glass Curtain Wall
The tension rod system provides structural bracing and support for point-supported glass curtain walls, using precision stainless steel rods with adjustable end fittings. Solid round rods with forked locking heads allow on-site length adjustment via left/right-hand threads, so each member can be tuned to the correct tension once the facade grid is in place.
The M24 size rod is the heavier member of our stainless steel tension rod family and is selected for long-span curtain wall and canopy bracing where greater rod capacity is required. It is commonly paired with matching fork connectors, spherical washers and turnbuckles to build a complete tension bracing package that transfers wind and dead loads back to the primary structure.
Key Features
- Material: SS304 / SS316 stainless steel
- Thread: M24, solid rod with fork-end lock heads
- Design: Left/right-hand thread for precise tension adjustment
- Finish: Mirror polished or satin brushed
- System: Pairs with matching fork connectors, spherical washers and turnbuckles
Specifications
- Material: SS304 / SS316 stainless steel
- Thread / rod: M24 thread on a solid round rod
- End fittings: Fork-end lock heads with adjustment thread
- Finish options: Mirror polished or satin brushed
Installation & Usage
Rods are measured and supplied to project lengths, then offered between the fixed connection points with the fork heads seated onto the matching pins or brackets. Adjustment is made with the left/right-hand thread until the rod is straight and evenly tensioned against its neighbours. Final locking is carried out after the whole bracing plane has been checked for alignment, and exposed threads are protected against site damage until handover.
Quality Assurance
All rods and end fittings are 100% inspected before shipment for thread accuracy, straightness and surface finish. Material test certificates are available on request to support facade specification and approval.
Applications
