Gibraltar 26870 7 Fixed Lifting Eye Bolt 500 Lb 1/4-20

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 26870 7 is a fixed lifting eye bolt designed for overhead lifting and rigging applications where a threaded anchor point is required. Built from C-1035 steel with a hot dipped galvanized finish for corrosion resistance, this eye bolt features a 1/4-20 fully threaded shank measuring 3 inches in length. It carries a rated lifting capacity of 500 pounds in a straight vertical pull. The shoulderless design is suited for inline vertical loading and is intended for installation by rigging professionals, millwrights, and maintenance technicians working in industrial and commercial environments.

This eye bolt is appropriate for use in overhead lifting setups, tie-down anchoring, and structural rigging in both indoor and outdoor settings. The hot dipped galvanized finish provides added durability in humid or corrosive environments. With a 1/4-20 thread size and a 3-inch fully threaded shank, it threads directly into tapped holes or accepts a compatible nut for through-bolt installations. Typical applications include securing rigging hardware to structural members, hoists, and material handling equipment.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified rigger or maintenance technician familiar with applicable ASME B30 rigging standards. Always ensure the threaded hole or receiving nut is clean and the eye bolt is fully seated and torqued before applying any load. Shoulderless eye bolts must only be loaded in a straight vertical direction — angular loading can significantly reduce safe working load and cause failure. Inspect threads and the eye for damage before each use.
