Gibraltar 26365 8 Fixed Shoulder Eye Bolt 500 Lb 1/4-20

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 26365 8 is a fixed lifting eye bolt with shoulder, designed for rigging and load-lifting applications in industrial, mechanical, and construction environments. Rated at 500 lb lifting capacity, it is manufactured from C-1035 steel with a hot dipped galvanized finish for corrosion resistance. The 1/4-20 fully threaded shank measures 2 inches in length, matching the full thread length. The shoulder design provides a defined bearing surface against the work material, supporting proper load transfer. Licensed riggers, millwrights, and maintenance mechanics typically install this hardware in overhead lifting, tie-down, and anchoring configurations.

This eye bolt suits light-duty lifting and rigging tasks across residential, commercial, and industrial settings. The 1/4-20 thread size makes it compatible with standard fastener hardware in wood, steel, and composite assemblies. With a 3/4-inch eye inside diameter and 1-1/4-inch eye outside diameter, it accommodates common hook and shackle hardware used in shop crane, hoist, and chain rigging setups. The hot dipped galvanized finish extends service life in moderate outdoor or damp environments.

Key Features

• 500 lb rated lifting capacity for light-duty rigging and load-securing applications
• With-shoulder design ensures positive seating and proper load alignment against mounting surface
• Fully threaded 2-inch shank on 1/4-20 thread for consistent engagement depth
• C-1035 steel construction provides reliable tensile strength for the rated load
• Hot dipped galvanized finish resists corrosion in outdoor and damp service conditions
• 3/4-inch eye inside diameter compatible with standard hooks and shackles

Compatibility

Designed as a standard fixed shoulder eye bolt for use in rigging, hoisting, and anchoring assemblies that require a 1/4-20 threaded fastener with a 500 lb lifting rating.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified riggers or maintenance mechanics following applicable ASME B30 rigging standards and facility safety protocols. Always de-energize and lock out any equipment before installing or removing lifting hardware. The shoulder must seat flush and fully against the mounting surface before applying any load. Never exceed the rated 500 lb lifting capacity, and do not use this eye bolt for angular loading beyond manufacturer-specified limits.
