Gibraltar 26188 3 Fixed Shoulder Eye Bolt 15000 Lb

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 26188 3 is a fixed lifting eye bolt with shoulder, designed for heavy-duty rigging and lifting applications in industrial and commercial environments. Built from Grade C-1035 forged steel with a hot-dipped galvanized finish, this eye bolt carries a rated lifting capacity of 15,000 pounds. The shank measures 3 inches with a fully threaded length of 3 inches on a 1-1/4-7 thread. The shoulder base provides a bearing surface that distributes load and prevents the eye from pulling through the mounting point. This hardware is installed by riggers, millwrights, maintenance mechanics, and other qualified trades personnel working with overhead lifting systems.

This eye bolt is suited for vertical straight-line lifting in industrial plants, warehouses, machinery maintenance operations, and construction sites where a secure, load-rated anchor point is required. The forged steel construction and galvanized coating make it appropriate for both indoor and corrosion-exposed environments. The 1-1/4-7 thread size fits standard heavy-duty tapped holes or through-bolted assemblies. Fixed eye bolts of this type are typically used where the load direction is consistent and aligned with the eye axis.

Key Features

• Eye inside diameter of 2-3/16 inches accommodates standard lifting hardware and hooks

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fixed shoulder eye bolt for use with standard 1-1/4-7 threaded mounting points in heavy-duty industrial lifting and rigging assemblies.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified rigger or maintenance mechanic familiar with applicable lifting and rigging standards. Always ensure the tapped hole or through-bolt assembly is rated to handle the full load before use. The shoulder must seat flush against the mounting surface to achieve rated capacity — do not use without the shoulder fully engaged. Never exceed the rated lifting capacity, and never use a fixed eye bolt for angled loads outside its rated angular range.
