M6 M8 M10 Stainless Steel Eye Bolts Ring Screws for Wire Fencing & Straining

Match the thread diameter (M6, M8, or M10) to your existing hardware or tapped hole. For shank length, the bolt should pass fully through the material with adequate thread engagement — generally at least 1.5× the bolt diameter. For example, M8 x 40mm (≈1-9/16") suits medium-thickness timber, while M10 x 80mm (≈3-1/8") is suited for heavy structural applications. When in doubt, measure the material thickness and add the required thread engagement depth.

Working load capacity varies by size. Generally, M6 eye bolts are suited for light-to-medium loads, M8 for medium loads, and M10 for heavier applications. Always apply an appropriate safety factor and never exceed the rated working load. For critical lifting or structural applications, consult a qualified engineer and verify load ratings before use.

Yes. These eye bolts are made from stainless steel, which provides significantly better corrosion resistance than zinc-plated steel. They are generally suitable for outdoor use, coastal environments, and applications with exposure to moisture or mild chemicals. For prolonged saltwater immersion or highly aggressive chemical environments, confirm the specific stainless steel grade before use.

These eye bolts use standard ISO metric coarse threads, compatible with M6, M8, and M10 nuts and tapped holes. They are not compatible with UNC/UNF inch-standard threads. Always verify thread pitch before ordering if you are matching to existing hardware.

Yes. These stainless steel eye bolts are well-suited for wire fencing straining, trellis tensioning, cable rigging, and marine tie-off points. The closed ring design provides a secure loop for wire, rope, hooks, or carabiners. For high-tension fencing or structural rigging, use M8 or M10 sizes and ensure full thread engagement into a solid substrate.

You can select from 1, 3, 5, 10, or 15 pieces per order. For a typical fencing run, you'll generally need one eye bolt per wire strand per post. Ordering in larger quantities (10–15 pieces) offers a lower per-unit cost. We recommend ordering a single piece first to confirm fit, then reordering in bulk for your full project.

Stainless steel eye bolts offer superior corrosion resistance, making them the preferred choice for outdoor, coastal, and marine environments where long-term durability matters. Zinc-plated eye bolts are generally more economical and suitable for indoor or sheltered outdoor use where corrosion exposure is limited. For applications near saltwater or in permanently wet conditions, stainless steel is typically the better investment.
