National Hardware N118-828 Medium Screw Eye

Product Description

The NATIONAL HARDWARE N118-828 is a medium zinc-plated steel screw eye designed for general fastening and hanging applications in wood substrates. The sharp screw point drives quickly and cleanly into wood without pre-drilling in most cases, reducing installation time. Constructed from steel with a zinc finish, this screw eye resists corrosion in typical indoor and light-duty applications. It is commonly installed by contractors, maintenance technicians, and experienced DIYers wherever a threaded loop anchor point is needed.

This screw eye suits residential and light commercial settings where a secure loop fastener is required in wood framing, trim, cabinetry, shelving, or similar wood members. The medium size makes it appropriate for mid-range load-bearing eye applications such as hanging wire, rope, hooks, or lightweight fixtures. Sold individually as a single unit per package.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by hand or with pliers for added torque leverage. Power down or de-energize any nearby electrical systems before working in confined spaces. For hardwood applications, a pilot hole is recommended to prevent wood splitting. Follow applicable building codes when using screw eyes as load-bearing anchor points.
