Eye Bolts

Product Overview:

Eye bolts are versatile hardware components designed for a variety of lifting, rigging, and anchoring applications. They consist of a threaded shank with a loop or eye at one end, allowing for secure attachment to various materials, including wood, steel, and concrete. Eye bolts are essential in construction, industrial, and marine settings due to their strength and reliability.

Types of Eye Bolts:

1. Forged Eye Bolts:
   • Forged instead of formed, these one-piece fasteners provide higher load ratings, making them suitable for heavy-duty lifting and rigging applications.
2. Screw Eyes:
   • These are screws with a head molded into an eye or loop, typically used for guiding cables or wires as well as for lifting and rigging.
3. Shoulder Eye Bolts:
   • Feature a shoulder below the eye, allowing them to be installed flush with the mounting material. This design provides additional strength and stability.
4. Thimble Eye Bolts:
   • Have an opening that functions as a thimble for rope or wire, reducing wear and tear on the materials.
5. Pivoting Eye Bolts:
   • Designed to spin 180° with a bottom that swivels 360°, allowing for greater flexibility in various applications.

Structural Features:

1. Threaded Shank:
   • The threaded shank allows for secure attachment to different materials, providing a reliable connection.
2. High-Quality Material:
   • Made from high-strength steel, stainless steel, or other durable materials to ensure long-lasting performance and resistance to corrosion.
3. Variety of Shapes:
   • Available in various shapes and designs, including oval, round, and thimble, to accommodate different applications.
4. Load Ratings:
   • Designed to meet specific load ratings, ensuring safety and reliability in lifting and rigging operations.

Installation Method:

1. Preparation:
   • Ensure all necessary tools and materials are available before starting the installation process. Verify the specifications of the eye bolts to ensure compatibility with the application.
2. Threading:
   • Thread the eye bolt into the pre-drilled hole in the material, ensuring it is properly aligned and tightened securely.
3. Securing:
   • Use appropriate nuts and washers if necessary to secure the eye bolt in place and ensure a firm connection.
4. Inspection:
   • Inspect the installation to ensure the eye bolt is securely fastened and properly oriented. Check for any signs of damage or misalignment.

Applicable Environmental Conditions:

1. Temperature Range:
   • Suitable for operation in temperatures ranging from -40°C to +85°C, ensuring performance in various climatic conditions.
2. Humidity:
   • Can operate effectively in environments with high humidity, providing reliability in moist conditions.
3. Weather Resistance:
   • Designed to withstand harsh weather conditions, including high winds, heavy rain, and UV exposure.
4. Corrosive Environments:
   • The hot-dip galvanized coating or stainless steel construction provides excellent resistance to corrosion, making eye bolts suitable for environments exposed to salt, chemicals, or industrial pollutants.
