Lifting Eye Bolts are headless bolts with eye type hook and externally threaded body, used for lifting purpose. Eye bolts are manufactured by hot forging and cold forging, with and without shoulder. Due to lifting purpose, these eye bolts are mostly produced in high tensile alloy steel, carbon steel, stainless steel, and astm specifications for high tensile material confirming to ASTM A193, A307, A325, F468 Grade 8.8, 10.9 & 12.9, etc. Lifting eyes are coupled with tapped hole or used in combination of a high tensile nut. lifting eyes, forged eye bolts, eye hook bolts are other alias of hex head bolts. Lifting eye bolt dimensions are defined in both metric and imperials sizes with unified national coarse pitch (UNC), fine pitch (UNF), fixed pitch (UN) and iso metric thread profile.
