Gibraltar 26485 3 Fixed Shoulder Eye Bolt 7000 Lb 7/8-9

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 26485 3 is a fixed, shoulder-type lifting eye bolt rated for 7,000 lb capacity. It is manufactured from C-1035 steel with a hot dipped galvanized finish for corrosion resistance. The bolt features a 7/8-9 thread size with a fully threaded 3-inch shank and a 3-inch thread length. The eye inside diameter measures 1-11/16 inches and the eye outside diameter measures 3-1/4 inches. This hardware is used in rigging, lifting, and tie-down applications across industrial, commercial, and mechanical trade settings. Installation is performed by qualified rigging professionals or millwrights following applicable load rating and safety guidelines.

This eye bolt is suited for overhead lifting and load-securing applications where a fixed, shouldered attachment point is required. The shoulder design ensures proper load transfer and reduces the risk of thread pullout under vertical loading conditions. The hot dipped galvanized finish makes it appropriate for use in environments with moderate moisture or corrosive exposure. It is sold individually and is sized for use with standard 7/8-9 threaded hardware and compatible lifting hardware such as shackles and hooks.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified rigging personnel following ASME B30.26 or applicable lifting hardware standards. The mounting surface must be inspected to confirm thread engagement meets minimum depth requirements for the rated load. Always de-energize or shut down associated equipment before installing or removing lifting hardware. Never exceed the rated load capacity and inspect the eye bolt for deformation, corrosion, or thread damage before each use.
