Match the thread diameter (M5, M6, M8, M10, M12, M14, M16) to your tapped hole or nut size. For shank length, measure the material thickness you are passing through and add at least 1.5× the thread diameter for full thread engagement. For example, M8 through 20mm (≈3/4") material typically needs at least 32mm of thread length. Lengths in this listing range from 20mm (≈3/4") to 300mm (≈11.8").

Working load limits vary by diameter and application angle. Generally, an M8 forged eye bolt is rated for approximately 200–300 kg in a straight vertical pull; M16 can typically handle 1,000 kg or more. Always apply a safety factor of at least 4:1 and consult a structural engineer for critical load-bearing applications. Contact us to confirm rated capacity for your specific size.

Yes. Stainless steel provides strong resistance to rust and corrosion in outdoor, humid, and mildly marine environments. These are generally suitable for catenary wire installations, exterior rigging, and garden or patio hanging hardware. For full saltwater immersion, 316-grade stainless is typically recommended — contact us to confirm the grade if your application requires it.

These eye bolts use standard ISO metric coarse threads. M5 through M16 sizes are available. They are not compatible with UNC or UNF imperial threads. If you are matching an existing tapped hole, verify it is metric-threaded before ordering. The included hex nut matches the same metric thread.

#A variants are sold in multi-packs (2 or 5 pieces per order) at a lower per-unit cost — ideal for catenary wire runs, suspended ceiling grids, or any project requiring multiple evenly spaced anchor points. #B variants are sold as single pieces, which is convenient when you need just one bolt or want to test fit before committing to a larger quantity.

Yes. The closed forged eye loop is designed to accept wire rope, cable, hooks, and carabiners. They are commonly used as anchor points for catenary wire lighting, suspended signage, and overhead cable management. Ensure the eye's internal diameter is large enough to accommodate your cable or hook hardware before ordering.

Yes. Each eye bolt in this listing includes one matching hex nut of the same thread size. This allows you to secure the bolt through panels, beams, or other materials without sourcing a separate nut. The nut is the same stainless steel material as the bolt shank.
