Gibraltar 12828 5 Fixed Shoulder Eye Bolt 900 Lb 5/16-18

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 12828 5 is a fixed lifting eye bolt with shoulder, designed for overhead lifting and rigging applications in industrial and construction environments. Built from grade C-1035 forged steel, it delivers a rated lifting capacity of 900 pounds and features a fully threaded 5/16-18 shank with a 2-inch thread length and 2-inch shank length. The shoulder design provides a stable load-bearing base that distributes stress at the mounting surface. Licensed riggers, millwrights, and maintenance mechanics typically install and inspect this hardware as part of engineered lift plans.

This eye bolt is suited for vertical lifting in fixed, in-line load applications. The shoulder design is critical for applications where loads must be applied in line with the shank axis. It is appropriate for use in machinery, structural steel, and equipment rigging in both residential and commercial settings where a permanent or semi-permanent lift point is required. Always verify that the mounting substrate and surrounding structure meet the load requirements before installation.

Key Features

• Grade C-1035 forged steel construction for high-strength performance
• Shoulder design distributes load stress at the mounting surface
• 5/16-18 UNC thread, fully threaded over a 2-inch shank length
• 7/8-inch eye inside diameter and 1-1/2-inch eye outside diameter
• Sold individually for single-point replacement or new installation

Compatibility

Designed as a standard fixed shoulder lifting eye bolt compatible with 5/16-18 UNC threaded mounting points in industrial rigging, machinery, and structural lifting applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified rigger or maintenance professional familiar with applicable ASME B30.26 rigging hardware standards. Thread the shank fully into the mounting substrate so the shoulder seats flush against the surface before applying any load. Never apply angular or side loads to a fixed eye bolt, as this significantly reduces rated capacity and risks hardware failure. Inspect the eye bolt and threaded engagement for damage or wear before each use.
