Gibraltar P15838GB Shoulder Eye Bolt 1300 Lb 3/8 in Thread

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR P15838GB is a shoulder-style lifting eye bolt rated for 1,300 lb capacity, designed for use in rigging, lifting, and load-securing applications. Manufactured from C-1030/C-1035 grade steel, it features a 3/8-inch thread size with a 2.5-inch partially threaded shank section and a total shank length of 6 inches. The shoulder design distributes load force at the base, making it appropriate for angular loading conditions when used within rated limits. This fastener is installed by millwrights, riggers, maintenance technicians, and contractors where a reliable anchor point is required on machinery, structural members, or equipment frames.

This eye bolt is suited for industrial and commercial applications including overhead lifting, tie-down anchoring, and machinery rigging. The shoulder base provides a stable bearing surface against the work material, which is critical when the lift angle deviates from true vertical. The partially threaded shank allows secure engagement in through-hole or tapped applications. Typical environments include manufacturing plants, construction sites, equipment bays, and maintenance facilities where repeated lifting attachment points are needed.

Key Features

• Shoulder-type design supports angular load applications when within rated limits
• 1,300 lb rated lifting capacity
• 3/8-inch thread size with 2.5-inch thread length for secure fastener engagement
• 6-inch shank length accommodates thicker work material or extended reach
• Partially threaded shank for through-hole and tapped-hole installations
• C-1030/C-1035 grade steel construction for strength and durability

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use shoulder eye bolt for 3/8-inch tapped or through-hole applications requiring a load-rated lifting anchor point.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified riggers or maintenance technicians following applicable ASME B30.26 rigging hardware standards. Ensure the tapped or through-hole receiving material is rated to support the intended load before installation. Thread the bolt fully until the shoulder seats flush against the work surface before applying any load. Never exceed the rated lifting capacity, and de-rate the working load limit when lifting at angles other than true vertical as specified by applicable rigging standards.
