Stainless Steel Tension Rod System
The stainless steel tension rod system provides structural bracing and support for point-supported glass curtain walls, combining precision stainless steel rods with adjustable end fittings. Each rod is threaded along its length and fitted with a turnbuckle, so installers can set the final tension on site and fine-tune the alignment of the supporting structure without rework.
Tension rod systems are used where a slim, unobtrusive bracing detail is preferred over bulky steelwork, keeping the visual focus on the glass. The range suits facade contractors working on curtain wall grids, glass canopies and structural glazing projects, and the threaded end fittings make length adjustment straightforward with standard tools.
Key Features

- Rod type: Threaded rods with adjustable end fittings
- Adjustment: Turnbuckle tensioning on each rod
- Surface finish: Mirror polished or satin brushed
Installation & Usage
The rod system is fixed between the supporting structure and the curtain wall back frame through the end fittings, then tensioned gradually with the turnbuckles. Installers should tighten the rods evenly so that loads are shared across the bracing set, and check that fittings seat squarely before final tensioning. Protective film should be left on polished surfaces during handling, and the stainless rods wiped clean once construction is complete.
Quality Assurance
Every tension rod and fitting is 100% inspected before shipment for thread integrity, dimensional accuracy and surface finish. Material test certificates are available on request to support project specifications.
