This eye bolt has a 1/2"-13 UNC (National Coarse) machine thread. On the 1/2" x 6" size, the bottom 3" of the shank is threaded and the rest is plain shank up to the shoulder. The threads are cut before hot-dip galvanizing, so the hex nut that comes with it is tapped oversize to fit over the coating. If you are threading it into a standard tapped hole, expect a snug fit and chase the hole if needed. Make sure the shoulder seats flush against the load for the full 2,200 lb in-line WLL.
