An eye bolt is a type of fastener with a looped head, resembling an eye, at one end. This loop allows for a connection point, typically for attaching ropes, cables, or chains. The other end of the eye bolt is threaded, allowing it to be screwed into various materials such as wood, metal, or concrete. Eye bolts are commonly used for lifting, rigging, securing loads, and creating attachment points in various applications, including construction, marine, and industrial settings. They come in different sizes and materials to suit different load capacities and environmental conditions. Safety considerations, such as proper installation and load limits, are essential when using eye bolts to ensure their effectiveness and prevent accidents.
