Gibraltar 26325 2 Fixed Shoulder Eye Bolt 7000 Lb 7/8-9

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 26325 2 is a fixed lifting eye bolt with a shoulder, designed for overhead lifting and rigging applications in industrial and commercial environments. Rated at 7,000 lb lifting capacity, it features a 7/8-9 thread size with a fully threaded, 3-inch shank. The eye bolt is machined from C-1035 steel and finished with a zinc-plated coating for corrosion resistance. With an eye inside diameter of 1-11/16 inches and an eye outside diameter of 3-1/4 inches, this bolt provides a secure attachment point for hooks, shackles, and lifting slings. Installation and rigging are typically performed by millwrights, maintenance mechanics, or rigging professionals.

This shoulder eye bolt is suited for use in manufacturing plants, warehouses, construction sites, and mechanical rooms where a fixed, permanent or semi-permanent lift point is required. The shoulder design transfers load directly into the supporting structure and is appropriate for straight vertical lifts. It is commonly installed into tapped holes in steel beams, machinery frames, or structural members where a reliable anchor point is needed for chain hoists, come-alongs, or overhead crane hooks.

Key Features

• 7,000 lb rated lifting capacity for demanding overhead rigging tasks

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fixed shoulder eye bolt for use in standard 7/8-9 tapped holes in steel structures, machinery, and rigging applications requiring a 7,000 lb rated lift point.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified rigging or maintenance personnel following applicable ASME B30.26 and OSHA rigging standards. Ensure the receiving tapped hole has full thread engagement equal to at least the shank length before applying any load. The shoulder must seat flush against the mounting surface for the rated capacity to apply. Never side-load a fixed eye bolt beyond its rated angle limitations, and always inspect the bolt and mating threads for damage before each lift.
