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.
