The turnbuckle is made of stainless steel. As a clad metal with the strength of steel and reducing rusting of iron, it is the strongest and best material for truck camping turnbuckles.

Stainless steel is used where both the properties and corrosion resistance of steel are required. It is known for its ability to prevent corrosion and rust. However, dirt, dust, and grime can put stainless steel at risk. Fortunately, stainless steel responds well to cleaning and won't wear out from overcleaning, as long as certain rules are followed.

Here are three simple cleaning techniques we recommend for standard turnbuckle maintenance:

Daily cleaning can be done with warm water and a cloth. This is the least risky option for cleaning stainless steel. Dry with a towel or cloth to prevent water spots and be sure to wipe in the direction of the polishing line.

For cleaning that requires more power, mild detergent and warm water are effective solutions that can be used without damaging the stainless steel. It is important to rinse the surface thoroughly to prevent staining and spotting. Drying with a towel can prevent water spots caused by minerals in the water.

If you experience stains or scratches or need to polish stainless steel, a stainless steel cleaner is a good choice. Some of these cleaners and polishes can help reduce scratches and remove stains. They also polish stainless steel surfaces well. Read the instructions on the stainless steel cleaner and test it in an inconspicuous place. Be sure to rinse thoroughly and towel dry.

Stainless steel does not stain, corrode, or rust as easily as carbon steel, but it is not stain-resistant and requires regular maintenance. All "stainless" steels can corrode under the wrong conditions. It is best to avoid exposure to chlorides as this can have serious effects on turnbuckles.

The above briefly introduces 3 ways to protect the surface of the turnbuckle and prevent corrosion. If you want to buy or customize the turnbuckle, please contact us.
