Gibraltar 26780 9 Fixed Eye Bolt 3200 Lb 9/16-12 Thread

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 26780 9 is a fixed lifting eye bolt designed for overhead lifting and rigging applications in industrial and commercial environments. Built from C-1035 grade steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance, it carries a rated lifting capacity of 3,200 lb. The bolt features a 9/16-12 thread size and is fully threaded along its entire 3-inch shank length. This eye bolt is the shoulderless fixed type, meaning it is suited for in-line vertical lifting loads. It is installed by millwrights, riggers, maintenance mechanics, and other trades working with material handling and lifting systems.

This eye bolt is appropriate for use in industrial plants, warehouses, construction sites, and mechanical rooms where a reliable fixed anchor point is needed for lifting equipment, machinery, or structural components. The fully threaded 3-inch shank allows secure engagement into tapped holes or with a nut and backing plate. Because this is a without-shoulder design, it should only be used for straight vertical in-line loads and is not rated for angular lifts without a swivel or shouldered-style bolt.

Key Features

• 3,200 lb rated lifting capacity for vertical in-line loads
• C-1035 grade steel construction for high tensile strength
• Zinc-plated finish provides corrosion resistance
• Fully threaded 3-inch shank for maximum thread engagement
• 9/16-12 UNC thread size for broad hardware compatibility
• Without-shoulder design for direct vertical pull applications

Compatibility

Designed as a standard fixed lifting eye bolt with 9/16-12 UNC thread, suitable for use with compatible tapped holes, nuts, and rigging hardware sized for that thread specification.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified rigger or maintenance mechanic following applicable ASME B30.26 and OSHA rigging standards. Always de-energize and secure equipment before attaching or removing lifting hardware. Thread the bolt fully to ensure complete thread engagement before any load is applied. Because this is a shoulderless fixed eye bolt, use it only for vertical in-line loads — angular loading on a shoulderless eye bolt significantly reduces safe working load and can cause failure.
