Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N221-101 is a zinc-plated eye bolt designed for light-duty fastening and rigging applications. Measuring 1/4 inch in diameter and 2-1/2 inches in length, this eye bolt provides a looped anchor point for attaching cables, ropes, hooks, or hardware to wood or compatible substrates. The zinc finish offers basic corrosion resistance for general indoor and light outdoor use. With an 80-pound load capacity, it suits low-load hanging, securing, and guiding tasks across residential and light commercial settings. Licensed tradespeople and experienced installers use this hardware in a wide range of structural and utility fastening scenarios.

This eye bolt is suited for residential construction, general contracting, and maintenance applications where a reliable anchor point is needed. Typical uses include securing guide wires, hanging lightweight fixtures or equipment, and routing lines or cables along framing members. The bulk packaging of 20 units per package makes it practical for installers and contractors who need consistent supply on active job sites.

Installation Notes

Eye bolts of this type are typically installed by general contractors, maintenance technicians, or licensed tradespeople using standard hand tools. Ensure the substrate provides sufficient thickness and structural integrity to support the rated load before installation. Do not exceed the stated 80-pound load capacity, and avoid side-loading the eye unless the bolt is specifically rated for angular loads. Consult applicable building codes for overhead rigging or load-bearing anchor applications.
