A DIN 580 eye bolt is a forged steel bolt with a collar and a round eye, used to create a lifting or anchoring point. The collar seats against the load surface to take the load in line and the eye accepts a hook, shackle or sling.
Typical Applications
Used as an anchorage point in lifting and rigging assemblies, for pulling, tying down and general load handling. The eye bolt must be seated so the load is applied in line with the eye; it is not designed for angular loading unless the appropriate type is specified. Match the working load limit to the load and the sling angle.
Material and Surface Finish
Forged carbon steel with a metric coarse thread and a black or zinc plated finish depending on the requirement.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I choose a DIN 580 eye bolt?
Choose a DIN 580 eye bolt when you need a lifting or anchoring point that bolts into a tapped hole and takes the load in line with the eye. It accepts a hook, shackle or sling, and the collar seats against the load surface. Where the load must be taken in several directions, or where you cannot tap a hole, tell us the application so we can confirm a suitable alternative.
What sizes and working load limits are available?
DIN 580 eye bolts are available from M6 to M64, with a working load limit from 0.14 t to 16.0 t. The key figures are listed in the specifications on this page; send us the size and finish you need and we will confirm the full dimension table.
What is the difference between a DIN 580 eye bolt and a DIN 582 eye nut?
The DIN 580 eye bolt has an external metric thread and screws into a tapped hole. The DIN 582 eye nut has an internal metric thread and screws onto a bolt or stud. Both create an eye-shaped lifting point; choose the eye bolt where you can tap a hole, and the eye nut where you need to fit onto an existing thread.
What is the most common mistake when using a DIN 580 eye bolt?
The most common mistake is loading the eye at an angle, or tightening it down and then using it where the pull comes from the side. The eye bolt is intended to be loaded in line with the eye. Always match the working load limit to the load and the sling angle, and confirm the correct type if the pull is not in line.
Can DIN 580 eye bolts be supplied in stainless steel?
The standard product is forged carbon steel with a black or zinc plated finish. Stainless steel versions can be quoted on request - tell us the thread size, the working load and the material you need.
