304 Stainless Steel Forged Eye Bolt Ring M10 M12 M14 – Full & Partial Thread, Catenary Hanging Screw

Generally, the shank should pass fully through the material being fastened, with enough thread engagement to develop full holding strength. For example, a 25mm (≈1")-long bolt suits thin panels, while a 100mm (≈3.9") bolt is better for thick timber beams. When in doubt, choose a longer bolt and use a nut on the back side to lock it securely.

Working load limits vary by diameter and installation method. Typically, an M10 forged eye bolt has a working load of around 200–300 kg when loaded axially (in-line with the shank). M12 and M14 sizes are generally rated higher. Always apply an appropriate safety factor and consult a structural engineer for critical lifting or load-bearing applications.

Yes. These are made from 304 stainless steel, which offers good corrosion resistance in most outdoor environments including rain, humidity, and mild coastal exposure. For highly aggressive marine environments with constant direct saltwater contact, 316 stainless steel is generally recommended. Contact us to confirm suitability for your specific application.

These eye bolts use standard ISO metric coarse threads, compatible with standard M10, M12, and M14 metric nuts and threaded holes. They are not compatible with UNC or UNF inch-standard threads. If you're unsure, measure your existing hardware with a thread gauge before ordering.

Full Thread means the entire shank length is threaded, giving maximum grip in thin materials or when using a nut on the back. Partial thread (Thread Length 50mm or 60mm) means only the lower portion of the shank is threaded, leaving a smooth unthreaded shoulder — useful when the bolt must pass through a clearance hole before engaging threads in a nut or tapped hole. Choose based on your assembly method.

Yes — these forged eye bolts are commonly used for catenary wire hanging, string light installations, cable management, and similar overhead suspension tasks. Ensure the anchor point (ceiling joist, beam, or masonry) is rated for the combined load. Install the bolt fully with the plane of the eye ring aligned with the load direction for maximum strength.

We offer flexible pack sizes — typically 1, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 30, or 50 pieces depending on the size selected. Larger packs offer a lower per-piece cost. Count your anchor points before ordering and add a few spares for future repairs or adjustments.
