Gibraltar GIB07115 Open Wire Turned Eye Bolt 5/16-18 10-pack

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR GIB07115 is a zinc-plated steel open wire turned eye bolt designed for light-duty fastening, lifting, and rigging applications where a looped attachment point is required. The wire turned construction forms an open eye, allowing a hook, cable, or ring to be quickly inserted or removed without disassembly. Threaded at 5/16-18, the bolt installs into standard tapped holes or with a matching nut. Each package contains 10 bolts. Thread length is 2 inches and shank length is 3.5 inches, giving adequate reach for typical wood, steel, or composite installations.

These eye bolts are suited for residential and light commercial use including shelving systems, cable management, rigging anchor points, and hanging applications. The zinc-plated finish provides baseline corrosion resistance for indoor environments and mild outdoor exposure. Installers working in construction, maintenance, and general trade will find this fastener appropriate for low- to moderate-load attachment tasks where a removable looped connection point is needed.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading installers, maintenance technicians, or general tradespeople using standard hand tools. Ensure the substrate is rated for the intended load before installation. The open eye style is not recommended for overhead lifting of personnel or critical loads without verifying the load rating of the specific assembly. Always confirm thread engagement depth meets the requirements of the application before applying load.
