Eye Bolt ZP

Eye Bolt ZP

Standard ASME B18.15
Grade 4.8, 8.8
Surface Treatment ZP

 Product Description

  • Standard Name: Eye Bolt (Ring Bolt / Lifting Eye Bolt).

  • Common Names: Lifting Eye Screw, Sheep Eye Bolt, Lifting Eye.

  • Product Definition: A bolt featuring a circular or “D”-shaped ring head, designed for lifting, suspending, towing, or securing. ZP denotes a zinc-plated surface finish.

Eye Bolt ZP Key Features

  • Zinc Plated (ZP) Coating: Provides basic rust protection and a bright silver finish, enhancing corrosion

    resistance, suitable for indoor or mildly damp environments.

  • Eye Design: Forged closed eye at the top facilitates connection of ropes, chains, hooks, or lifting rings,

    providing a secure lifting point.

  • Threaded Structure: The bolt features standard threads and is commonly used with nuts and washers;

    types include straight eye or shouldered eye.

  • Material and Strength: Commonly made of carbon steel, offering medium strength; conforms to

    standards such as DIN 580 and ASME B18.15.

  • Advantages: Convenient for lifting, economical and practical, easy to install, but the load must be

    axial to avoid side pulling.

Working Principle

  • Threaded Fixing: The bolt is screwed into the base material or used with a nut, generating axial

    clamping force.

  • Eye Connection: The closed eye provides a connection point, and ropes or hooks pass through the eye

    to transmit tensile force.

  • Load Transmission: The tensile force is evenly distributed to the base material through the bolt; the zinc

    plating reduces friction and provides corrosion protection.

  • Safety Control: Requires axial loading; avoid side pulling to prevent bending; the principle involves

    frictional gripping and mechanical wrapping.

Product Applications

  • Lifting and Hoisting: Connecting chains or ropes for lifting equipment and structural components,

    providing temporary lifting points.

  • Construction Engineering: Fixing railings, suspension rods, or curtain walls to concrete/wood.

  • Mechanical Equipment: Fastening pipes, lighting fixtures, or brackets; zinc plating is suitable for

    indoor use.

  • Home and DIY: Installing chandeliers, swings, or shelves; economical and practical.

  • General Fixing: Any project requiring an eye connection.
