Gibraltar 26164 7 Fixed Shoulder Eye Bolt 2000 Lb 7/16-14

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 26164 7 is a fixed lifting eye bolt with a shoulder, designed for overhead lifting and rigging applications in industrial, construction, and mechanical service environments. Built from C-1035 forged steel with a hot dipped galvanized finish, it delivers a 2,000 lb lifting capacity on a 7/16-14 threaded shank. The shank length and thread length are each 1-3/8 inches, and the eye inside diameter measures 1-3/32 inches, allowing standard hooks and shackles to seat cleanly. This bolt is fully threaded through the shank, providing consistent engagement across the full thread length. It is installed by riggers, millwrights, and maintenance mechanics wherever a secure, load-rated anchor point is required.

This eye bolt is suited for use in residential, commercial, and industrial settings where a fixed, non-swivel anchor point is acceptable and the load path is in line with the bolt axis. Common applications include machinery lifting, structural rigging, and equipment tie-down in shop or field environments. The shouldered design seats against a bearing surface to help distribute load and resist side loading compared to shoulderless styles. Always verify the load angle and use the appropriate de-rating factor when lifting off-axis.

Key Features

• 2,000 lb rated lifting capacity for overhead and rigging use
• C-1035 forged steel construction for strength and toughness
• Hot dipped galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in wet or outdoor environments
• With-shoulder design seats against a bearing surface to improve load distribution
• Fully threaded 7/16-14 shank for consistent thread engagement
• Eye inside diameter of 1-3/32 inches accommodates standard hooks and shackles

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fixed shoulder eye bolt for use with standard 7/16-14 threaded anchor points in rigging, lifting, and tie-down applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified riggers or maintenance mechanics familiar with ASME B30.26 and applicable lifting hardware standards. Thread the bolt fully into a properly tapped hole and tighten the shoulder firmly against the bearing surface before applying any load. Always de-rate lifting capacity when the load angle deviates from the bolt axis, and never exceed the rated working load limit. Inspect the eye bolt and threaded hole for damage before each use.
