Product Information

Full details

This SecureFix Direct M16 Collar Lifting Eyebolt is designed for professionals in the lifting industry needing a reliable and certified component for heavy-duty applications. Its key benefit is adherence to BS4278 standards, ensuring safety and compliance. A key caveat to be aware of is that the Safe Working Load (SWL) may be reduced when the eyebolt is used at an angle.

FAQs

What does the 0.8 Ton SWL rating mean?

The Safe Working Load (SWL) of 0.8 Ton (metric) indicates the maximum load the eyebolt is certified to handle safely under direct vertical lifting conditions. This rating is based on BS4278 standards.

Can this eyebolt be used for angled lifts?

Yes, but the Safe Working Load (SWL) will be reduced. For angled lifts, it is essential to consult load charts or a qualified professional to determine the reduced capacity and ensure safety.

What is the thread size and pitch?

The eyebolt has an M16 thread size with a pitch of 2.00mm. This means it is designed to fit into a metric M16 x 2.00mm female thread.

What is the benefit of the collar design?

The collar provides a stable bearing surface that sits flush against the mounting surface. This helps to distribute the load more evenly and ensures a secure connection, preventing the eyebolt from spinning or loosening under load.

How should I maintain the eyebolt?

Keep the eyebolt clean and dry. Inspect it regularly for any signs of wear, damage, or significant corrosion before each use. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners on the zinc-plated surface.

Is this eyebolt suitable for outdoor use?

The zinc-plated finish offers good corrosion resistance, making it suitable for many outdoor applications. However, prolonged exposure to harsh weather conditions may accelerate wear. Regular inspection and maintenance are recommended.

Troubleshooting

Eyebolt feels loose after installation.

Ensure the receiving thread is clean and the eyebolt is screwed in completely until the collar is snug. Verify the thread pitch matches (M16 x 2.00mm). If the hole is damaged or worn, it may not provide a secure fit.

Visible rust or corrosion on the surface.

Minor surface rust can often be wiped away with a dry cloth. For more significant corrosion, consult a professional. If corrosion compromises the material integrity, replace the eyebolt immediately.

Difficulty screwing the eyebolt into the thread.

Check that the thread pitch of the eyebolt (2.00mm) matches the thread pitch of the receiving hole. Ensure both threads are clean and free from obstructions. Do not force the eyebolt; this could damage the threads.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Certified to BS4278 standards for reliable lifting.
  • Durable zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance.
  • Suitable for a wide range of industrial lifting applications.
  • Clear SWL rating for straightforward load management (for vertical lifts).
  • Secure collar design enhances stability during lifting.

Cons

  • Safe Working Load (SWL) is reduced for inclined lifts.
  • Primarily designed for threaded hole applications; not for direct bolt insertion.
  • Specific thread pitch (2.00mm) needs to match receiving thread.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To set up this eyebolt, ensure the receiving threaded hole is clean and free from debris. Screw the M16 eyebolt into the threaded hole until the collar is firmly seated against the mounting surface. Ensure the thread engagement is sufficient for the load. The thread size is M16 with a pitch of 2.00mm, so it must be compatible with a metric M16 x 2.00mm tapped hole or stud.

Compatibility: This eyebolt is designed for threaded connections. It is compatible with any M16 x 2.00mm female thread. Always verify the material strength of the component into which the eyebolt is being screwed.

Care: The zinc-plated finish offers good corrosion resistance. Clean the eyebolt regularly with a dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Inspect for any signs of wear, corrosion, or damage before each use. Store in a dry environment when not in use.
