Eye Bolts
Here at B.B Price, we’re one of the UK’s leading manufactures of galvanized eye bolts and stainless-steel eye bolts.
An Eye Bolt is a mechanical fastener, consisting of a loop at one end and a threaded shaft, also known as a shank on the other. The shank itself is screwed into a solid structure, such as a wooden pole, to help secure the eye into position. The looped eye is typically used to thread ropes or cables through, which helps to guide or direct them.
Their purpose? They serve as removable attachment points for securing cables or ropes. They can have a fully or partially threaded shank, allowing the eye to either sit flush against the securing surface, or slightly separated.
What kind of Eye Bolts do we forge?
Each type of Eye Bolt is suited for different sorts of tasks, and it is very crucial to ensure the selected bolt meet its working load requirements.
- Lifting Eye Bolt: These kinds of Eye Bolts are used for mainly hoisting and rigging, featuring a circular eye and a threaded shaft for attaching slings or hooks. They are mainly designed for vertical lifts where loads are applied straight along the bolt’s axis.
