C. Sherman Johnson "T" Style Toggle Jaw f/1/8" Wire

The C. Sherman Johnson "T" Style Toggle Jaw for 1/8" Wire (MPN 26-415) is a precision marine hardware fitting designed for securing wire rope to stern rails and deck structures where gate-free configuration is preferred. This toggle jaw connects seamlessly with turnbuckles positioned forward, providing a clean, functional attachment point on small-diameter cable systems. Marine professionals and boat builders rely on this component for applications requiring minimal footprint and reliable wire termination without additional securing gates.

Engineered by C. Sherman Johnson, a trusted manufacturer of stainless steel marine hardware, this toggle jaw accommodates 1/8-inch wire with the characteristic "T" configuration that provides dual pivoting points for secure engagement. The compact design—measuring 3 inches in length with a 1-inch profile—minimizes visual obstruction while maintaining structural integrity for deck rigging systems. The toggle mechanism allows quick attachment and removal while maintaining positive wire grip, making it ideal for adjustable stays and guy-wire tensioning applications where frequent adjustment is necessary.

This fitting works best in stern rail installations paired with forward-mounted turnbuckles, simplifying the overall rigging geometry on sailing vessels and utility boats. The lightweight construction (0.1 lbs) ensures minimal load impact while delivering durability in saltwater and freshwater marine environments. Installation requires standard fastening compatible with 1/8" wire rope, and the toggle jaw integrates seamlessly with C. Sherman Johnson turnbuckles and complementary deck hardware for complete rigging solutions.
