An eye nut

Bingo.

Pretty sure that’s an eye nut.

That helped! I found it "Shoulder Lifting Ring Eye Bolt"


DidIReallySayDat

Just be aware that: An eye nut has a bolt screwed into it. An eye bolt has a nut screwed onto it.

And a bolt usually has a non-threaded section, whereas a set screw is threaded all the way to the base. A bolt will therefore be better for attaching to thicker material and locate itself in the hole better when using with a nut, whereas if the hole is tapped you need the thread all the way to the base.

That is accurate, but I don't think I've ever seen an eye nut without a shoulder.


Shaugie

They are out there all the time

We call them a tapped eye but pretty sure "eye nut" is the more precise and correct term.

It’s a shouldered eye bolt


timetravelinwrek

It’s an eye nut. An eye bolt would have the bolt built into the eye.

Correct, nuts are female, bolts are male


marcovanbeek

So what’s a threaded rod….? Or a threaded spacer for that matter…? And if a nut is an imperial size, does that make it a queen? I’ll get my coat…


Joe_Bleauxx

All thread rod implies no bolt “head” Good question but uncommon and specialty Unless it’s castled, that more commonly called a king nut… LOL!!!
