What are eyebolts?
An eyebolt is a mechanical fastener with a threaded shaft and a head forming a ring. Eyebolts are used to attach an eye to a structure, through which rope, cable or shackles can be secured. A common use is to create a lifting eye so that a crane can be attached to machinery, with special purpose lifting eyes rated for their safe working load.
Special types of eyebolt include:
The four basic types are regular eye bolts, shoulder eye bolts, screw eye bolts, and machinery eye bolts. *Regular and shoulder rigging eye bolts are essentially the exact same part with the only obvious exception being the shoulder. The shoulder feature provides more stability to the base of the eye and therefore, makes it the recommended choice for angular loading. Regular eye bolts are not recommended for angular loading. Both regular and shoulder eye bolts have UNC type threads. *Screw eye bolts are designed for screwing into wood. And because of this, do not have a working load limit assigned to them because it is not possible to determine the various densities and conditions of the wood the eye bolts are screwed into. *Machinery eye bolts are designed with a shoulder and are designed for angular loading. The difference between machinery eye bolts and regular and shoulder type eye bolts is that the shank and threads of the machinery eye bolt do not protrude through the base metal. Therefore, all of the holding strength of the machinery eye bolt is on the threads. Regular, shoulder and screw eye bolts have a hot dip galvanized finish and the machinery eye bolts are self-colored with a light rust preventative oil applied.
What Are Eyebolts?
Application
Use plain or regular eye bolts (non-shoulder) or ring bolts for vertical loading only. Angle loading on non-shoulder bolts will
bend or break them. Use shoulder eye bolts for vertical or angle loading. Be aware that lifting eye bolts at an angle reduces the safe load.
What should you avoid when using eye bolts?
*Do not run a sling through a pair of eye bolts: this will reduce the effective angle of lift and will put more strain on the rigging.
*Do not force the slings through eye bolts. This force may alter the load and the angle of loading.
*Do not use eye bolts that have been ground, machined or stamped.
*Do not use bars, grips or wrenches to tighten eye bolts.
*Do not paint an eye bolt.The paint could cover up flaws.
*Do not force hooks or other fittings into the eye; they must fit freely.
*Do not shock load eyebolts.
*Do not use a single eye bolt to lift a load that is free to rotate.
*Do not use eye bolts that have worn threads or other flaws.
*Do not insert the point of a hook in an eye bolt. Use a shackle
