Adaptive Technologies EB-500 Rigging-Component (Black)

Explore the Robust Adaptive Technologies EB-500 Eye Bolt
Introducing the Adaptive Technologies EB-500, a high-performance eye bolt designed for secure and reliable rigging operations. This eye bolt, featuring a black 1/2-13" threading, is essential for anyone needing a dependable solution for overhead applications. Manufactured in the USA, the EB-500 combines quality with functionality, ensuring that your rigging requirements are met with the highest standards of safety and efficiency.

Crafted with Precision: The Drop Forge Process
The EB-500 is created through a meticulous drop forge process, which enhances the metal's strength and ensures uniformity across all units. This process guarantees that each eye bolt meets very exacting and predictable standards, making it especially reliable in overhead rigging where precision is paramount. This forging technique ensures the eye bolt maintains its integrity under high load and stress conditions.

Designed for Optimal Load Distribution
Featuring a cleverly designed shoulder, the EB-500 distributes side load forces more effectively across the object it is attached to. This design minimizes stress at the bolt’s centerline, enhancing the overall safety and lifespan of both the bolt and the structure to which it is attached. This feature is particularly useful in complex rigging setups where directional forces vary.

Safety First with a 5:1 Design Factor
Safety is a top priority with the EB-500, which is engineered with a 5:1 ultimate yield design factor. This safety rating means that the eye bolt is capable of handling loads five times greater than the normal working load limit before reaching the point of failure. This robust design factor ensures that users can operate with confidence, knowing that their setups are secured by hardware that exceeds typical safety standards.

Installation and Usage Guidelines
When using the EB-500, it is crucial to adhere to the working-load table for side loading applications. Always ensure that side load forces are applied in the direction of the arrows shown on the product illustrations to avoid undue stress through the center of the eye. It's important to note that there are no working load values for side loading eye nuts, and extra caution is necessary under these conditions.
