Uses of Lifting Eye Bolts
Eye Bolt Applications lifting eye bolt
1. Machinery & Mould Industry (Most Common Application)
1. Injection moulds and die-casting moulds: Eye bolts are pre-installed at four corners of moulds for lifting, machine loading, transferring and storage via overhead cranes.
2. Machine tools, reducers, motors and pump bodies: Thread holes are reserved on heavy equipment housings to fit eye bolts, used for factory loading/unloading, on-site installation and maintenance lifting of rotors or casings.
3. CNC equipment, hydraulic stations and cast housings: For lifting and transferring heavy casings during assembly to prevent deformation from single-point lifting.
2. Heavy Industry & Engineering lifting eye bolt
1. Power industry: Lifting transformers, wind turbine towers, power distribution cabinets and generators; serving as lifting points for power plant maintenance.
2. Mining & metallurgy: Hoisting whole mining equipment, rolling mills and smelting components for equipment replacement.
3. Construction & bridge engineering: Temporary lifting of prefabricated steel structures, pipelines and shield machine parts; tensioning and fixing tunnel support components.
4. Port & marine engineering: Hull fittings, container auxiliary parts and offshore platform equipment; stainless steel eye bolts are adopted for anti-corrosion in seawater environments.
3. Logistics & Heavy Cargo Handling
Loading, unloading and long-distance transportation of large machine tools, generator sets and injection moulding machines as dedicated lifting points for goods; pre-installed inside heavy metal packaging boxes for lifting by forklifts or overhead cranes.
4. Chemical, Petroleum & Offshore Engineering
Lifting chemical tanks, reactor accessories and oil & gas equipment; 304/316 stainless steel eye bolts resist acid, alkali and seawater corrosion, suitable for offshore platforms and coastal facilities.
5. Light-Duty Auxiliary Uses (Small-Spec Eye Bolts) lifting eye bolt
1. Rope tensioning and cable fixing, temporary traction of equipment.
2. Lifting small workpieces for tool fixtures and test benches.
3. Lifting small structural components and fixing hanging parts in stages and stadiums.
Core Functions Summary lifting eye bolt
1. Lifting & Transferring: Loading/unloading and wor kshop shifting of complete machines, moulds and castings, high-altitude installation.
2. Maintenance & Disassembly: Hoisting casings, rotors and other heavy spare parts during equipment disassembly.
3. Traction & Fixing: Tensioning and temporary limiting of engineering components.
4. Standardized Safe Lifting Points: Alternative to welded lifting lugs, detachable and replaceable with standardized load capacity.
Supplementary Classification lifting eye bolt
• Forged carbon steel eye bolts: General industrial, mould and machine tool heavy-load use.
• Stainless steel eye bolts: Chemical, marine, outdoor humid and corrosive environments.
• Swivel eye bolts: For multi-angle inclined lifting, dedicated to heavy-duty equipment.
