Use eye bolts at a horizontal angle greater than 45°. Sling strength at 45° is 71% of vertical sling capacity. Eye bolt strength at 45° horizontal angle drops 

Grade-8 Eye Bolts offer up to 4 times higher lifting capacity in certain applications. The larger internal eye diameter offers a versatile alternative to 

10/30 · Application: (a) Loads should always be appliedto lifting eyes in the plane of the eye,not at some angle to this plane. (b) Shoulder lifting eyes must beproperly seated (should bear firmlyagainst the mating part) otherwisethe working loads must be reducedsubstantially. A steel washer orspacer may be required for proper seating.

391 products. Eye bolts have a shank for anchoring to structures or equipment and a ring (or loop) at the top for attaching rope, hooks, or other hardware. They're used as anchor eye bolts for routing or tying down wire and cable. Machinery or lifting eye bolts are rated for vertical or angular lifting up to their specified capacity. Application.

A simple and conservative approach is to calculate the length of a single shear plane as: L sp = a where a = R − 0.5 D h, as shown in the figure above. If it is desired to account for a slightly longer shear plane, it is common practice to consider a 40 degree line extending from the center of the shear pin.

The padeye calculator is based upon the following calculation procedure: 1) Enter design load including factors ( F) 2) Select a shackle size from the 'SWL' list 3) Enter cheek-plate and pin-hole clearances ( C & Cᴾ) 4) Enter a maximum allowable stress for the padeye plate ( σ)
