Product Information
Full details
This guide is for professionals in the lifting industry and general users requiring secure lifting solutions. The SecureFix Direct Lifting Eye Nut (24MM / M24 G80) offers a robust and certified method for attaching lifting hooks to heavy loads, ensuring safety and durability. A key consideration is understanding its Safe Working Load (SWL) limits for different angles of use to prevent overloading.

FAQs
What does 'Grade 80' mean for this eye nut?
Grade 80 refers to the material strength classification for alloy steel chain and fittings used in lifting. It indicates a high tensile strength and resistance to stress, making it suitable for overhead lifting applications.
What is the difference between SWL @ 90° and SWL @ 0°?
SWL @ 0° (8 Ton) is the Safe Working Load when the lifting force is applied directly upwards, in line with the eye nut. SWL @ 90° (3.2 Ton) is the Safe Working Load when the lifting force is applied at a 90-degree angle to the eye nut's axis. The load capacity is significantly reduced at an angle.
How do I determine the correct SWL for my lifting task?
You must consider the angle of the lift. If lifting directly overhead, use the 0° SWL. If the load is pulled or lifted at an angle, use the 90° SWL (or a correspondingly reduced SWL for intermediate angles), ensuring it is not exceeded.
Can this eye nut be used for non-lifting purposes?
While the material is strong, this eye nut is specifically tested and certified for lifting purposes. Using it for other applications may not be safe or appropriate and voids its lifting certification.
What is the thread length of the 24MM / M24 eye nut?
The thread length for the 24MM / M24 G80 eye nut is 38MM.
How often should I inspect the eye nut?
Regular visual inspections should be performed before each use. Professional inspections should be conducted according to local regulations and industry best practices, typically at least annually or more frequently depending on usage intensity.
Troubleshooting
Eye nut does not thread in smoothly
Check the M24 threads on both the eye nut and the mounting hole for debris, damage, or cross-threading. Clean thoroughly before reattempting.
Visible wear or damage after use
Immediately remove the eye nut from service. Inspect for signs of bending, cracking, or excessive corrosion. Replace if any damage is present.
Difficulty attaching lifting hook
Ensure the lifting hook's opening is compatible with the eye nut's inner diameter (Eye Diameter: 50MM). Check for any obstructions or deformation in the eye nut.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Certified and tested for lifting safety.
- Constructed from high-strength Grade 80 material.
- High Safe Working Load (SWL) capacity.
- Durable and long-lasting construction.
- Easy attachment point for lifting hooks.
Cons
- SWL varies significantly with the angle of lift (0° vs 90°).
- Requires proper understanding of load angles to avoid overstress.
- Specific thread size (M24) may limit compatibility with older equipment.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Ensure the M24 thread is clean and free from damage before installation. Screw the eye nut firmly into a compatible M24 threaded hole. Hand-tighten initially, then use appropriate tools to ensure a secure fit without over-tightening, which could damage the threads. Always verify the threaded component can support the intended load.
Compatibility: This eye nut features an M24 thread, making it compatible with any M24 threaded receptacle designed for lifting applications. It is designed to work with standard lifting hooks, shackles, and chain slings.
Care: Regularly inspect the eye nut for any signs of wear, deformation, cracks, or corrosion. Clean with a dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals. Store in a dry environment when not in use. Always refer to professional rigging guidelines for proper inspection intervals and maintenance.
