Eye Nuts

Description text

Description: Eye nuts are fasteners with a looped head designed to secure hooks, cables, or chains in place. Unlike eye bolts, eye nuts do not have a shank; instead, they feature a female thread that can be screwed onto a separate bolt or any male-threaded product.

The main function of an eye nut is to serve as an anchor point for chains or ropes, allowing them to be attached to a fixed surface by screwing the eye nut onto an existing bolt or rod. This creates a reliable connection, ideal for lifting, securing, or suspending loads in various applications.

What are Eye Nuts used for?

Eye nuts are versatile components used across various industries for a range of applications. Here’s how they can be utilised:

  • Lifting and Hoisting: They are commonly used as secure lifting points in heavy lifting and rigging applications. When attached to threaded bolts or studs, they provide a safe connection point for hoists, slings, or ropes to lift heavy equipment or materials.
  • Construction and Infrastructure: In construction projects, they are often used to anchor and stabilise structures, or to suspend cables, pipes, and other components. Their ability to bear significant loads makes them essential in structural support systems.
  • Marine and Offshore Applications: They are ideal for marine environments where they are used to secure mooring lines, rigging, and various other equipment exposed to harsh weather conditions.
  • Machinery and Maintenance: Eye nuts provide attachment points for lifting or moving machinery during repairs or installations, ensuring efficient and safe handling.

These applications highlight the strength and reliability of eye nuts, making them a key component in heavy-duty lifting, anchoring, and securing tasks across many sectors.
