Gibraltar GIB07045 Open Eye Bolt 1/4-20 Zinc-plated 10-pack

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR GIB07045 is a wire turned open eye bolt designed for general fastening and rigging applications in light-duty trade and construction environments. Constructed from steel with a zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance, this eye bolt features a 1/4-20 thread size, a 1.25-inch thread length, and a 1.5-inch shank length. The open eye design measures 0.5 inches inner diameter and 1 inch outer diameter, making it suitable for hooking, looping, or passing rope, cable, or chain. Licensed tradespeople and general contractors commonly specify this fastener for mechanical, electrical support, and general-purpose hanging tasks.

This eye bolt is used across a wide range of applications including wire management, cable support runs, hanging light fixtures, securing control lines, and general rigging in residential and light commercial settings. The zinc-plated finish provides a layer of protection against moisture and oxidation in indoor and sheltered outdoor environments. Each package contains 10 eye bolts, making this an efficient solution for projects requiring multiple anchor or loop points.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by hand or with standard hand tools; use a correctly sized wrench or driver to seat the bolt fully without overtightening, which can distort the wire turned eye. Always verify the substrate material and thread engagement depth before applying load. Ensure the eye bolt is rated for the intended load and that the load direction is aligned with the plane of the eye to avoid side-loading. Power down or de-energize any nearby electrical components before working in panel or conduit areas where these fasteners may be used for wire support.
