    Eyebolts—For Lifting

    Create a secure attachment point for hooks, shackles, and other lifting equipment. Also known as machinery eyebolts, these eyebolts are used to lift heavy machines and materials. They have a closed eye that won’t bend under strain.
    Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people. Capacities listed are for vertical lifting only.

    Eyebolts with Nuts—For Lifting

    Also known as nut eyebolts, these are designed for through-hole applications.
    Note: Capacities listed are for vertical lifting only. Eyebolts with shoulder can be used for angular lifting up to 45°, but the capacities will be significantly reduced. For angular lifting, we recommend Hoist Rings. Eyebolts without shoulder are for vertical lifting only.
    Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.

    Rotating Eyebolts—For Lifting

    Unlike conventional eyebolts, you can rotate the eye 360° to match the angle of your load.
    Note: Capacities listed are for vertical lifting only. Eyebolts with shoulder can be used for angular lifting up to 45°, but the capacities will be significantly reduced. For angular lifting, we recommend Hoist Rings.
    Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.
