Gibraltar PSS16037GB Lifting Eye Nut 2700 Lb 3/8-16 SS304

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR PSS16037GB is a stainless steel lifting eye nut rated for 2,700 pounds working load capacity. It features a 3/8-16 threaded base that accepts a standard threaded rod or bolt, allowing a rigging ring to be attached at the top for vertical or angular lifting applications. Constructed from Grade 304 stainless steel, this eye nut resists corrosion in wet, coastal, and industrial environments. The eye stands 2.5 inches tall with a 2-inch outside eye diameter and a 1.25-inch inside eye diameter, giving sufficient clearance for shackles and hooks. The bell base width measures 0.875 inches. Riggers, millwrights, and maintenance trades install this hardware in overhead lifting, anchoring, and tie-down setups.

This eye nut is suited for use in residential and commercial construction, industrial maintenance, and marine or pool-adjacent environments where corrosion resistance is a priority. Common applications include suspending mechanical equipment, securing rigging lines, and anchoring loads to threaded rod assemblies. The 3/8-16 thread is a widely standardized size, making this nut compatible with readily available hardware across most trades. Grade 304 stainless construction makes it appropriate for HVAC equipment hoisting, electrical conduit support systems, and general rigging tasks where exposure to moisture or chemicals is expected.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install lifting eye nut for 3/8-16 threaded rod applications requiring a stainless steel rigging point.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified riggers, millwrights, or licensed tradespeople following applicable ASME B30 rigging standards and site-specific load requirements. Always de-energize and isolate the load path before replacing or repositioning lifting hardware. Thread the nut fully onto a properly rated 3/8-16 anchor point and verify seating and alignment before applying load. Do not exceed the rated working load capacity and inspect the eye nut for deformation or corrosion before each use.
