Value Collection 38635 Wire Turned Eye Bolt 5/16-18

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 38635 is a wire turned eye bolt designed for general fastening and rigging applications where a looped anchor point is needed. Manufactured from steel with a zinc-plated finish for basic corrosion resistance, this eye bolt features a 5/16-18 thread size, a 2-inch thread length, and a 2.25-inch shank length. The wire turned construction produces a continuous loop eye by forming the shank wire into a closed ring, making it suitable for light-duty attachment, hanging, and cable routing tasks. Licensed tradespeople and maintenance professionals install these fasteners in a wide range of structural and mechanical applications.

This eye bolt is well suited for residential and light commercial use where a threaded loop anchor is required. Common applications include hanging fixtures, routing conduit or cable, securing guide wires, and general rigging tasks. The 5/16-18 unified coarse thread provides reliable engagement in standard tapped holes and with matching hex nuts. The 9/16-inch inside diameter loop accommodates hooks, shackles, and small carabiner-style hardware.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard wire turned eye bolt for use with 5/16-18 threaded holes, compatible hex nuts, and light-duty rigging hardware in residential and light commercial fastening applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading the eye bolt into a properly tapped hole or through a clearance hole with a matching nut applied to the opposite side. Ensure the substrate material and thread engagement depth are adequate for the intended load before use. Do not exceed the load rating for the fastener or apply lateral loads that could deform the wire turned eye. Follow applicable building codes and manufacturer load guidelines when using eye bolts in overhead or rigging applications.
