Gibraltar 26029 9 Fixed Lifting Eye Bolt 7000 Lb 7/8-9

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 26029 9 is a fixed lifting eye bolt rated for 7,000 lb capacity, designed for straight vertical lifting applications in industrial and construction environments. Built from C-1035 forged steel with a zinc-plated finish, it delivers the structural integrity required for rigging, hoisting, and load-securing tasks. The 7/8-9 fully threaded shank runs 2.25 inches in length, providing solid thread engagement across a range of mounting configurations. This eye bolt ships without a shoulder, meaning load must be applied in a straight vertical line only. It is installed by riggers, millwrights, and maintenance mechanics working in facilities, fabrication shops, and field construction settings.

This fixed eye bolt is suited for use in overhead lifting points, anchor applications, and rigging setups where a permanent or semi-permanent threaded attachment is required. The fully threaded shank accommodates varying material thicknesses within the thread length. It is appropriate for industrial maintenance, structural steel work, and heavy equipment rigging where a zinc-plated forged steel fastener meets the load and environmental requirements of the job.

Key Features

• 7,000 lb rated lifting capacity for straight vertical loads
• C-1035 forged steel construction for high tensile strength and durability
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance in general industrial environments
• Fully threaded 7/8-9 shank, 2.25 inches long, for maximum thread engagement
• Eye inside diameter of 1.6875 inches accommodates standard hooks and shackles
• Without shoulder design — for straight vertical lift only, not angular loading

Compatibility

Designed as a standard fixed lifting eye bolt for use in threaded anchor point applications requiring a 7/8-9 thread size and a 7,000 lb straight vertical load rating.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified riggers or mechanics familiar with ASME B30.26 rigging hardware standards. Always ensure the mounting surface is structurally rated for the applied load before installing. Because this eye bolt has no shoulder, lateral or angular loading must be avoided — use a shouldered eye bolt or swivel hoist ring for angled lifts. Inspect threads and the eye for deformation or corrosion before each use, and never exceed the rated capacity.
