Product Information
Full details
The AB Tools 6mm Diamond Eye Plate is a versatile hardware solution designed for homeowners, marine enthusiasts, and contractors who need a reliable tie-down point for securing light-to-medium loads. Crafted from high-grade A2 stainless steel, it provides excellent corrosion resistance for outdoor or maritime environments, though users should ensure their mounting surface is thick enough to support the torque and load requirements of a four-hole anchor system.

FAQs
Can this plate be used for overhead lifting?

What is the diameter of the mounting holes?

Is this suitable for saltwater environments?
Yes, it is constructed from A2 (304) stainless steel, which offers good resistance to corrosion in salt-air environments, though regular cleaning is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Ensure the mounting surface is flat and tighten all four screws equally to distribute tension.
Surface shows signs of orange staining.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires four suitable 5mm fasteners, such as wood screws for timber or machine bolts for metal surfaces. Always verify that the mounting substrate can handle the anticipated load. For care, although the plate is made from corrosion-resistant A2 stainless steel, you should periodically rinse it with fresh water if used in a marine environment to prevent surface staining. Check the tightness of the mounting screws during routine seasonal maintenance to ensure the plate has not loosened due to vibration or expansion and contraction.
