What Are Eye Hook Anchors?

Eye hook anchors (also called concrete eye bolts or lifting eye anchors) are specialized fastening devices featuring a closed eye loop at one end and machine threading at the opposite end. These professional-grade anchors create secure attachment points for ropes, cables, chains, and lifting equipment in permanent installations.

Installation Guide & Safety Requirements

Pre-Installation Safety Check

• Verify substrate strength and suitability
• Calculate total load including safety factors
• Inspect anchor for defects or damage
• Ensure proper PPE is worn during installation
   

Installation Process

Step 1: Substrate Preparation

• Mark anchor location accurately
• Drill hole to specified diameter and depth
• Clean hole thoroughly of debris
• Verify hole perpendicularity

Step 2: Anchor Installation

• Insert eye hook anchor through substrate
• Apply thread locker if specified
• Tighten to specified torque using calibrated tools
• Verify eye orientation for intended load direction

Step 3: Load Testing

• Perform proof load test at 125% of working load
• Inspect for deformation or substrate failure
• Document test results for safety records
• Mark anchor with load rating if required

Critical Safety Requirements

Load Calculations:

• Never exceed working load limit (WLL)
• Apply appropriate safety factors (minimum 4:1)
• Consider dynamic loads and shock loading
• Account for angular loading effects

Inspection Requirements:

• Visual inspection before each use
• Periodic load testing per safety standards
• Replace if wear, deformation, or corrosion evident
• Maintain inspection records for compliance

Load Capacity & Engineering Data

Working Load Limits (WLL)

Straight Pull Loading:

• M6: 150 kg maximum working load
• M8: 280 kg maximum working load
• M10: 450 kg maximum working load
• M12: 650 kg maximum working load

Angular Loading Considerations:

• 45° angle: Reduce WLL by 25%
• 60° angle: Reduce WLL by 50%
• Side loading: Maximum 20% of straight pull WLL

Safety Factors & Standards

• Design factor: 4:1 minimum (Breaking load ÷ WLL)
• Proof load testing: 2.5 × WLL
• Compliance with international lifting standards
• Regular inspection intervals are recommended

Quality Assurance & Certifications
