About the product

The eye bolt is used to create an attachment point for ropes, chains and rigging equipment in a tapped hole. It has an eye with a collar and a thread that screws into the hole. The product complies with standard DIN 580.

The bolt thread is M12 — the thread in the hole must match. The bolt thread length A is 20.5 mm; the thread in the hole must be at least this long. The external eye diameter D is 54 mm, and the internal eye diameter Ø is 30 mm. Height H is 53 mm. These are nominal values according to the manufacturer's datasheet (dimensional tolerance ±5% as stated in the datasheet). Screw the bolt in until the collar is fully seated against the surface — the entire face of the collar must be in contact with it. Before attaching a rope or chain, align the plane of the eye with the direction of loading.

Material: C15 steel. Coating: zinc-coated. The zinc coating protects the steel against corrosion under normal conditions; where there is contact with salt, chemicals or persistent moisture, choose the material according to the exposure conditions. The rated load of 340 kg stated in the manufacturer's datasheet applies to a correctly screwed-in component. When pulling at an angle to the axis, the permissible load is lower, and the working load for a specific application is determined by the design. The breaking load is 2000 kg and is not the working load. Do not use the component for lifting people.
