Gibraltar P14018MGB Lifting Eye Bolt 5510 Lb M18 X 2.50

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR P14018MGB is a fixed lifting eye bolt with shoulder, designed for overhead lifting and rigging applications in industrial and construction environments. Built from Grade 1030 steel, this eye bolt is fully threaded along its shank and provides a rated lifting capacity of 5,510 pounds (2,140 kilograms). The M18 x 2.50 metric thread ensures a secure, precise fit into compatible threaded anchor points. The shouldered design bears load against a mating surface, which is critical for maintaining alignment and preventing the bolt from pulling through under tension. Rigging hardware specialists, millwrights, and maintenance technicians are the primary users of this fastener.

This eye bolt is suited for fixed, in-line vertical lifting where the load is applied along the axis of the bolt. The shoulder transfers load to the mating surface, making this appropriate for use in fabricated lifting fixtures, machinery anchor points, and structural lifting attachments. The metric M18 x 2.50 thread size is consistent with European and ISO-standard equipment. The fully threaded shank allows flexibility in engagement depth within the host material, subject to rigging plan requirements and applicable load ratings.

Key Features

• Shouldered design transfers load to the mating surface for improved alignment under vertical loads
• Fully threaded shank along the entire engagement length
• M18 x 2.50 metric thread for compatibility with ISO-standard threaded anchors
• Grade 1030 steel construction for strength and durability in industrial service
• Eye inside diameter of 38 mm accommodates standard hooks and shackles

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style fixed lifting eye bolt for use in industrial rigging and lifting fixture applications requiring an M18 x 2.50 metric threaded anchor point with shoulder bearing surface.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified rigging professional or millwright in accordance with ASME B30.26 and applicable worksite lifting procedures. Ensure the threaded anchor point is clean and in good condition before engagement, and that the bolt is fully seated with the shoulder flush against the mating surface before applying any load. Never use a fixed eye bolt for angular or side-loaded lifts — only in-line vertical loading is appropriate for this style. Inspect the eye bolt and rigging hardware for deformation or damage before each use.
