Gibraltar 13000 4 Fixed Eye Bolt 9000 Lb 1-8 Thread Forged Steel

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 13000 4 is a fixed lifting eye bolt designed for overhead lifting and rigging applications in industrial, construction, and maintenance environments. Built from C-1035 grade forged steel, it delivers a rated lifting capacity of 9,000 pounds and features a shoulder base for proper load distribution when mounted against a flat surface. The 1-8 thread size is fully threaded along the 5-inch shank length, allowing secure engagement with compatible threaded hardware. This part is typically installed by riggers, millwrights, maintenance mechanics, and other trade professionals performing load-bearing lifts.

This eye bolt is suited for use in fixed-anchor lifting setups where a shouldered, forged steel fastener is required. The shoulder design is critical for applications involving angled or lateral loading, as it seats flush against the mating surface to transfer load properly. The fully threaded shank provides flexibility in engagement depth depending on material thickness. Common applications include machinery positioning, structural steel erection, equipment maintenance hoisting, and load-securing operations in shop or field environments.

Key Features

• 9,000 pound rated lifting capacity for demanding overhead load applications
• Shouldered base design ensures proper load transfer and flush seating against mounting surface
• C-1035 grade forged steel construction for high tensile strength and durability
• 1-8 thread with fully threaded 5-inch shank for versatile engagement depth
• Eye inside diameter of 1-13/16 inches accommodates standard hooks and shackles
• Inch measurement system; single-piece package with no assembly required

Compatibility

Designed as a fixed shoulder lifting eye bolt for use with standard 1-8 threaded anchor points in inch-measurement rigging and lifting systems.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified personnel familiar with rigging hardware and applicable ASME B30 or OSHA overhead lifting standards. The shoulder must seat fully and flush against the mating surface before any load is applied; partial engagement voids the rated capacity. Always de-energize or de-tension any connected equipment before installing or removing this fastener. Inspect the eye bolt for cracks, deformation, or thread damage before each use and remove from service if any defects are found.
