Eye bolts

Why is it called an eye bolts?

An eye bolt is a particular somewhat threaded fastener that has a looped end. The loop is included in the threaded body, as seen in the adjacent image. The threaded rod is still present in eye bolts. They come in various sizes, but they all have a threaded rod that enables you to drive them into pilot holes. However, this bolts lack a strong head. They have a loop at the end instead. The term “eye bolts” refers to this loop’s eye-like appearance.

How do you install a lifting eye bolt?

• Set this bolt so that it is parallel to the slings. This bolt may bend if the load is applied in a sideways manner.
• To make sure the eye bolt firmly contacts the load surface, use washers between the shoulder and the load surface. Make sure the nut is torqued appropriately.
• When utilizing shims or washers, at least 90% of the threads in the receiving hole should be engaged.
• This bolt should only receive one sling leg.
• Examine and tidy up the eye bolt’s holes and threads. Look for fractures, bends, or thread wear.
• This bolt must be fully tightened and firmly seated.
• A minimum depth of 1.5 times the bolt diameter should be present in the tapped hole for a screw eye bolt (body bolts).

How much weight can an eye bolt carry?

The weight capacity essentially remains the same if the tilt is less than 5 degrees. However, the maximum capacity is 20% lessened at simply 15 degrees. For instance, a 1/4-inch bolt can normally support 600 pounds when pulled straight (no angle). The maximum weight capacity, however, lowers to 480 pounds at a 15-degree angle (or 80% of the “straight pull” weight capacity).

What is the difference between a swivel eye bolt and a threaded eye bolt ?

Hoist rings and eye bolts are not interchangeable. Bolts having a threaded shank are known as eye bolts. Commercial lifting applications use hoist rings, which are robust lifting rings. Hoist rings just have a base and a ring; they don’t have a threaded shank.

Use hoist rings whenever you are lifting something. They are capable of supporting small loads, although they are not intended for lifting. Wall décor can be hung using eye bolts. Besides, hoist rings should be used for lifting tasks in commercial settings.

Hoist rings come in a variety of designs. A pulling force can be supported by side-pull hoist rings. A side-pull hoist ring may be the best option if you need to simply pull an object rather than lift it. In addition, there are swivel hoist rings. A base and a ring make up swivel hoist rings. Swivel hoist rings, however, allow for 360° rotation of the base.

How do you determine the size of heavy duty eye bolts?

• Finding out the weights of the tyre and each of the riders should be your initial step.
• After there, you can choose how many holding points, or bolts, you want to utilize.
• Let’s assume that two eye bolts are used in this instance to divide the weight and surface area equally.
• You can decide to use a shoulder eye bolt to hold the weight because this would require an inclined lift.
• It’s time to choose the size and measurements now.
• The weight capacity might help you choose the precise size you need. I suggest consulting a chart of the eye bolt load ratings.

What are shoulder eye bolts used for?

Eye bolts that have shoulders are also frequently referred to as “shoulder pattern” eye bolts. At the intersection of the eye and the shank, these eye bolts are constructed with a shoulder. they can be used for angular lifting with this shoulder design, provided the shoulder is properly set in the load, as it lessens bending strains on the shank.

To be functional whether utilized for side loading or angle loading, the shoulder must be flush. Always adhere to the manufacturer’s guidelines and capacity reductions due to varied loading angles.
You must utilize a shoulder eye bolt when lifting with slings at ANY angle.
