Gibraltar P16062GGB Lifting Eye Nut 5000 Lb 5/8-11 Galvanized

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR P16062GGB is a heavy duty lifting eye nut rated for 5,000 pounds of load capacity. Machined from Grade C-1030 carbon steel and finished with a galvanized coating for corrosion resistance, this eye nut threads onto standard 5/8-11 fasteners to provide a secure overhead lifting point. It measures 3 inches high with a 1-1/2 inch inside eye diameter, 2-1/2 inch outside eye diameter, and a 1-3/8 inch bell and base width. Weighing 0.25 pounds, it is compact yet built to handle demanding rigging and hoisting applications in industrial and construction environments.

This lifting eye nut is used in overhead lifting, rigging, and hoisting setups where a threaded anchor point is required. Typical applications include securing lifting slings, hooks, and rigging hardware to machinery, structural members, or fabricated equipment. The galvanized finish makes it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use where moderate moisture exposure is a factor. It is installed by millwrights, riggers, ironworkers, and maintenance mechanics as part of a broader lifting assembly.

Installation Notes

This lifting eye nut should be installed by a qualified rigger or millwright familiar with applicable ASME B30 rigging standards. Always inspect the threads and eye for damage before use and ensure the fastener is fully engaged to the base of the nut before applying load. Never exceed the rated 5,000 pound capacity and confirm all rigging hardware in the assembly is rated to match or exceed this load. Power down or de-energize any associated equipment before attaching rigging hardware to machinery or structural anchor points.
