Boat owners, dock builders, and outdoor DIYers know the frustration of eye hooks that corrode after a single season, strip out of the wood under load, or come in only one size when you need a specific wire gauge for your rigging or cable routing project. Whether you're fitting cable guides along a wooden boat hull, routing wire through a garden pergola, or installing rigging points on a dock structure, you need compact, heavy-duty eye hooks that hold their finish and their grip over time.
These are zinc-plated steel screw-in eye hooks (closed loop) available in four wire diameters: 2mm with a 19.2mm (3/4") total length, 2.3mm at 22.4mm (7/8"), 2.8mm at 28mm (1-1/8"), and 3.7mm at 28.6mm (1-1/8"). The zinc plating provides corrosion resistance for marine and outdoor environments. Packs are available in 10, 50, or 100 pieces, making this listing suitable for single repairs through to bulk installation projects.
Typical applications include routing marine cable and wire through closed eye hooks along wooden boat gunwales, cabin walls, or dock framing; installing cable guide eye hooks along garden fence lines, pergola beams, or shed walls for string lights and wire systems; and fitting rigging anchor points on wooden boat structures, trailer frames, or outdoor timber installations where a compact, corrosion-resistant screw-in eye hook is needed.
Zinc-Plated Corrosion Resistance — The zinc coating provides a protective barrier against rust, making these eye hooks suitable for marine boat fittings, dock hardware, and outdoor cable guide installations where bare steel would degrade quickly.
Four Wire Diameters — 2mm to 3.7mm — Choose from 2mm, 2.3mm, 2.8mm, or 3.7mm wire gauge to match your load requirements and cable or rope diameter, covering light cable routing through to heavy-duty marine rigging anchor points.
Closed Loop Eye Design — The fully closed eye prevents wire, rope, or cable from slipping out under load — essential for marine rigging points, cable guide systems, and any application where the line must stay permanently secured through the hook.
10, 50, or 100-Pack Options — Buy exactly what your project needs: a 10-pack for small repairs or single installations, a 50-pack for medium fit-outs, or a 100-pack for bulk marine, dock, or outdoor cable routing projects at a lower per-unit cost.
Screw-In Wood Installation — The threaded shank drives directly into wood with a pilot hole, providing a secure mechanical hold in boat timber, dock framing, shed cladding, and outdoor structural lumber without adhesives or additional hardware.
Compact Heavy-Duty Profile — At 19.2–28.6mm total length, these hooks offer a low-profile installation footprint suited for tight spaces on boat hulls, cabin walls, and fence lines where a bulky fitting would be impractical.

The key dimension to match is the wire diameter, which determines the hook's strength and the size of the eye opening. The 2mm wire (19.2mm / 3/4" total length) is generally suited for lighter cable routing and small rigging tasks. The 2.3mm wire (22.4mm / 7/8") handles slightly heavier loads. The 2.8mm wire (28mm / 1-1/8") is suited for medium-duty marine and outdoor applications. The 3.7mm wire (28.6mm / 1-1/8") is the heaviest option in this range, typically used for structural hanging, boat fittings, and heavier cable guide applications. When in doubt, size up for a more secure hold.
Load capacity depends on the wire diameter, installation depth, and substrate material. The 2mm wire hooks are generally suited for light-to-medium loads such as cable routing and small rigging points. The 2.8mm and 3.7mm wire hooks can typically support heavier loads when properly installed into solid wood or structural timber. Always account for dynamic loads — vibration, wave motion on boats, or wind — which can be significantly higher than static weight. For critical load-bearing marine or structural applications, verify the specific load rating before use.
Yes, for general marine and outdoor use. The zinc plating provides a protective layer against rust and corrosion, making these hooks suitable for boat fittings, dock hardware, garden structures, and covered outdoor installations. For prolonged direct saltwater spray or highly aggressive coastal environments, additional protective coating or stainless steel alternatives are generally recommended for longer service life.
These are screw-in eye hooks with a self-tapping wood screw thread designed for direct installation into wood substrates. They are not designed to thread into pre-tapped metal holes or mate with standard nuts or marine hardware fittings. For use with metal substrates or threaded fittings, contact us to confirm compatibility before ordering.
The 10-pack is ideal for small projects or repairs — fitting a few cable guides on a boat, hanging a set of lights, or a single rigging point. The 50-pack suits medium installations such as fitting out a shed, routing cable along a fence line, or a small marine refit. The 100-pack offers the lowest per-unit cost and is well-suited for contractors, larger boat or dock installations, or anyone who wants to keep a supply on hand for ongoing marine and outdoor projects.
Yes, a pilot hole is strongly recommended, especially for the larger wire sizes (2.8mm and 3.7mm) and when installing into hardwood or dense marine timber. Use a drill bit slightly smaller than the wire diameter. For smaller sizes (2mm and 2.3mm) in softwood, installation may be possible without a pilot hole, but drilling one still gives a cleaner, more accurate result and reduces the risk of wood splitting.
Both have a similar total length (28mm / 1-1/8" vs 28.6mm / 1-1/8"), but the key difference is the wire diameter: 2.8mm vs 3.7mm. The 3.7mm wire hook is significantly heavier gauge, providing greater strength and a larger eye opening — suited for heavier loads and thicker cable or rope. Choose the 28mm / 2.8mm for medium-duty applications and the 28.6mm / 3.7mm when you need a more robust fitting for heavier marine or structural use.
