Gibraltar P41393GB Forged Eye Bolt 1/2 Inch Galvanized Steel

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR P41393GB is a forged steel eye bolt with a hot-dipped galvanized finish, designed for heavy-duty fastening applications in construction, rigging, and general trade work. The forged construction provides superior strength and resistance to deformation under load compared to stamped alternatives. With a 1/2-inch thread size, a 2-3/8-inch thread length, and a 1-inch inside eye diameter, this bolt is suited for use where a secure anchor point or lifting attachment is required. The hot-dipped galvanized finish delivers corrosion resistance in outdoor and high-moisture environments. Licensed contractors and tradespeople working in structural or mechanical installations are the primary users.

This eye bolt is configured as a wood screw type, making it appropriate for anchoring into timber framing, posts, and structural wood members commonly found in residential and light commercial construction. Typical applications include securing cable runs, hanging equipment, anchoring rigging points, and attaching hardware to wood structures. The 3-1/4-inch shank length provides adequate engagement depth in standard dimensional lumber. The 1-inch inside diameter eye accommodates common hooks, shackles, and carabiner-style hardware used in trade installations.

Key Features

• Forged steel construction for high load capacity and resistance to bending or failure under stress
• Hot-dipped galvanized finish for corrosion resistance in outdoor and wet environments
• 1/2-inch thread size with 2-3/8-inch thread length for secure engagement in wood substrates
• 1-inch inside eye diameter compatible with standard hooks, shackles, and rigging hardware
• 3-1/4-inch shank length provides deep purchase in dimensional lumber
• Wood screw thread type for direct installation into timber without a nut or backing plate

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install fastener for wood screw eye bolt applications in residential and light commercial structural, rigging, and hardware installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by carpenters, general contractors, or qualified tradespeople. A pilot hole sized appropriately for the 1/2-inch thread should be drilled prior to installation to prevent splitting of the wood substrate. Ensure the anchor point wood member is structurally sound and free of rot or damage before installation. Always verify the rated load capacity of the eye bolt against the intended application before use.
