Overview

High-Quality ASTM A489 Carbon Steel Forged Lifting Eye Bolts

Adfast Component LTD proudly offers ASTM A489-compliant carbon steel forged lifting eye bolts, designed for superior performance and reliability. Available in two types based on shank patterns (Type 1: Plain pattern, Type 2: Shoulder pattern) and two styles based on shank lengths (Style A: Long Length, Style B: Short Length), these eye bolts are crafted for use in sizes ranging from 1/4 inch to 2 1/2 inches. Manufactured to operate effectively between 32°F and 275°F, these lifting eye bolts deliver unmatched durability. Refer to ASME B18.15 for comprehensive usage guidelines.

Durable and Safe Eyebolts for Diverse Applications

To ensure safety and reliability, our ASTM A489 lifting eye bolts undergo liquid quenching and tempering, adhering to the highest quality standards. However, these eye bolts should never be loaded above the proof load and must not be used when surface discontinuities are present to avoid brittle failure. For applications below 32°F, alloy steel eyebolts per ASTM F541 are recommended. Trust Adfast Component LTD for premium lifting eye bolts tailored to meet your industrial needs.

ASTM A489 Type 1 straight shank lifting eyes 11⁄2 in. (36.1 mm) or less in diameter, after being screwed into a steel block to the full thread length and bent 45° by pressure, shall not exhibit any visible surface ruptures in the unthreaded section of the lifting eye when examined at 10× magnification.

 

Impact Test

  • The lifting eyes shall have an average Charpy V-notch impact strength of not less than 35 ft·lbf (47 J) at 0°C (32°F).
  • The impact strength shall be the average of three specimens tested. Not more than one specimen shall exhibit a value below the specified minimum average, and in no case shall a value be less than 23 ft·lbf (31 J).
  • Whenever possible, test specimens shall be taken from the shank and shall conform to the standard 10 by 10-mm Charpy V-notch specimen shown in Test Methods and Definitions A370. When lifting eyes are too small for standard-size specimens, subsize specimens may be used, or specimens that represent the same heat and have been subjected to the same forging and heat-treating practices as the lifting eyes they represent may be taken from separate test coupons.

Grain Size Test

  • The finished lifting eyes shall have an as-finished grain size of ASTM No. 5 or finer. The grain size shall be rated from a broken tensile specimen end representing a heat treated lot of one size. Tests shall be conducted in accordance with Test Methods E112.

Bolting Components Marking

Product Shall be Marked with our manufacturing trade mark Adfast Component LTD along with the designated Grade.
Grade and manufacturer’s identification symbols shall be applied to one end of studs and to the heads of bolts and screws of all sizes. (If the available area is inadequate, the grade symbol may be marked on one end and the manufacturer’s identification symbol marked on the other end.) For bolts and screws smaller than 1⁄4 in. [6 mm] in diameter and studs smaller than 3⁄8 in. [10 mm] in diameter and for 1⁄4 in. [6 mm] in diameter studs requiring more than a total of three symbols, the marking shall be a matter of agreement between the purchaser and the manufacturer.
