Gibraltar 08682 0 Fixed Shoulder Eye Bolt 3500 Lb 5/8 in 316 Ss

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 08682 0 is a fixed lifting eye bolt with shoulder, designed for overhead lifting and rigging applications in industrial, marine, and construction environments. It carries a lifting capacity of 3,500 pounds and is machined from Grade 316 stainless steel with an electropolished finish, making it well suited for corrosive or wet environments where standard carbon steel hardware would degrade. The shank measures 4.5 inches in length with a 2-inch partially threaded section at 5/8 inch thread size. The shoulder design provides a stable bearing surface against the load structure, improving load distribution and alignment under tension.

This eye bolt is intended for use in applications where a fixed, non-swivel lift point is acceptable and the load is applied in line with the bolt axis. Typical installations include rigging attachment points on marine equipment, process machinery, structural steel, and stainless-compatible assemblies where Grade 316 corrosion resistance is specified. The electropolished surface reduces surface contamination and improves cleanability, making it appropriate for food processing, pharmaceutical, and saltwater environments as well. Licensed rigging professionals and millwrights are the primary installers for this hardware.

Key Features

• 3,500 lb lifting capacity for fixed, in-line load applications
• Grade 316 stainless steel construction for corrosion resistance in marine and chemical environments
• Electropolished finish reduces surface roughness and improves corrosion performance
• Shoulder design distributes load against mounting surface and improves stability
• Partially threaded shank — 2 inches of thread on a 4.5-inch shank
• 5/8 inch thread size for compatibility with standard industrial fastener hardware

Compatibility

Designed as a fixed shoulder lifting eye bolt for use with standard 5/8 inch threaded mounting applications where Grade 316 stainless steel and electropolished finish are required. No specific equipment or model compatibility was provided in the product data.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified rigger or millwright in accordance with applicable ASME B30 rigging standards. Ensure the receiving structure is tapped and rated to handle the full lifting load before installation. The eye bolt must be fully seated with the shoulder flush against the load surface, and the load must be applied in direct line with the shank axis — angular loading on a fixed eye bolt will significantly reduce working load capacity. De-energize and lock out any associated equipment before installation or removal.
