National Hardware N119-222 Large Screw Eye

Product Description

The NATIONAL HARDWARE N119-222 is a large zinc-plated steel screw eye designed for general fastening and hanging applications across a wide range of trades and DIY tasks. The screw eye features a closed-loop head and a threaded shank that drives directly into wood substrates. Its zinc plating provides a baseline level of corrosion resistance suitable for indoor and light-duty applications. This fastener is sold as a single unit per package and is a catalog item listed under National Hardware model V2014. Installers in electrical, HVAC, and general construction trades commonly use screw eyes for wire management, hanging components, and securing lightweight fixtures.

This screw eye is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications where a reliable anchor point is needed in wood framing, studs, joists, or trim. Typical uses include routing cable or wire runs, hanging lightweight equipment, and securing cords or lines. The large-format loop accommodates heavier gauge wire or rope compared to standard-size screw eyes, making it a practical choice when a wider opening is required at the anchor point.

Key Features

• Large closed-loop head provides a wider opening for rope, wire, or cable routing
• Threaded shank drives directly into wood without pre-drilling in most softwood applications
• Zinc plated steel construction for corrosion resistance in indoor and light-duty environments
• Single-piece fastener with no hardware assembly required
• Sold as a single unit per package for flexible quantity purchasing

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose large screw eye suitable for use in wood substrates in residential and light commercial installations.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed with a screwdriver, awl, or pliers inserted through the eye loop for torque leverage. Pre-drilling a pilot hole is recommended in hardwood substrates to prevent splitting and ensure straight drive alignment. Ensure the substrate material is sound and adequate for the intended load before installing. This fastener is not rated for overhead life-safety or structural load-bearing applications.
