Stainless Lifting Bolts - Male 18864

metric

Material
Stainless steel A4 (AISI 316).
Supplied with a Report of Thorough
Examination (RoTE), CE marked.
Technical Notes
To DIN 580.
When installing male lifting eye
bolts it is critical to ensure face is in
firm contact with the mating
surface.
Inch versions also readily available
as standard.
Tips
Load values are only applicable
when the thread is fully screwed in
place and the material it is being
used in is as least as strong as the
that of the bolt.
Values given are for steel and cast
iron components.
Follow safety lifting rules.

 DIN 580 Lifting Eye Bolts 18843 -18866
mounting information & instructions Clamping & Height Setting

Important Note: DIN 580 lifting eye bolts are mainly intended for permanent mounting
to components such as motors, switchgear cabinets and gears, and for transporting these
items of equipment. Please take care to take particular note of the following advice.

1) To be used by authorised, qualified and instructed personnel. Lifting eye bolts must be marked
permanently raised with manufacturer’s mark, material ID (e.g. C15E, A2 or A4), load-bearing
capacity and axial direction (WLL in kg, see also Table/ F in N), and with CE symbol.
2) Check the lifting points for proper bolt seat, corrosion, wear and tear, deformation, etc. at regular
intervals and before every use.
3) Select the lifting point such that the introduced forces are absorbed by the base material without
any deformation. Screw-in depth for steel with a tensile strength of Rm >340 N/mm2, e.g. S235JR
(1.0037); or GG25 (0.6025 - without cavities or shrinkage): 1.5 x thread size d1 (=L). For screw-in
material with lower strength, use lifting points with greater screw-in length. Minimum screw-in
depths recommended: 2 x thread size d1 in aluminium alloys, 2.5 x thread size d1 in light metal
with low strength. For light materials, non-ferrous metals and grey cast iron, select the thread
such that the load-bearing capacity of the thread corresponds with the requirements involving
the base material. For through-holes, a nut (0.8 x d) should be fully and firmly bolted from the
opposite side. If the thread length of the screw is sufficient, the use of an additional washer is
recommended.
4) Select the position of the fixing points to avoid swivel or load shifts.
a.) Arrange the lifting point for a single strand sling perpendicular above the load centre.
b.) Arrange the lifting points for a twin strand sling to ensure both sides are above the load
centre. Caution: Avoid turning or rotating movements during transport!
c.) Position the eye bolt such that no shear tension acts on the eye bolt (illustration below,
incorrect use). The introduced force must act in the direction of the eye bolt plane (illustration
right, correct use).

Load symmetry 5) Load symmetry: See the table above for the speciied load-bearing capacity of each lifting point
for symmetrical loads. For recommended load capacities of lifting eye bolts at f1, f2, f3 please refer
to the individual product data tables.
6) The attachment surface (Ød2) must be plane. Maximum spot-facing of the thread hole = nominal
diameter of the thread. Blind holes must be drilled to a depth to ensure that the contact surface
of the eye bolt is well sealed.
7) Shock loads or vibrations may cause inadvertent loosening. Securing options: Tightening torque +
liquid thread lock agent, e.g. Loctite (depending on use; observe manufacturer’s speciications).
Always secure lifting points which remain permanently at the ixing point,
e.g. by gluing.
8) The end attachment must be freely movable in the lifting eye bolt. When slinging and removing
the end attachment (sling chain, round sling, wire rope), make sure that no pinch, shear, catch or
impact points occur. Avoid damage to the end attachments caused by sharp-edged loads.
9) Temperature suitability: DIN 580 lifting eye bolts may be used without restricting or impairing
the load-bearing capacity within the temperature range from -20oC to +200oC.
10) Lifting points must not be allowed to make contact with aggressive chemicals, acids or their
vapours.
11) After mounting and installation and in intervals depending on use, at least once every year, the
continued suitability of the lifting point must be checked and inspected by an expert. This also
applies after damage or other unusual incidents.
Test criteria to item 2:
especially in zones exposed to tension loads
• firm seat of the bolt (tightening torque)
• completeness of the lifting point • severe corrosion
• deformations at load-bearing parts, e.g. base • cracks in load-bearing parts
element and bolt • function and damage, if any, of the bolt and
the bolt thread
• mechanical damage, e.g. sharp notches,
If there is any doubt with regard to the safe use, the lifting point and/or the lifting equipment
must not be used for safety reasons. Failure to observe these instructions may result in personal
injury and material damage!
