Eye Screw

Stainless steel eye screws with an M6 thread provide a strong and reliable attachment point for wire rope, cable, chain, straps, and a wide range of rigging and fixing hardware. Featuring a closed eye formed integrally with the threaded shank, these fasteners are designed to handle tension loads while maintaining a neat, professional appearance in both functional and visible installations.

Eye screws are commonly used in stainless balustrade systems, shade structures, marine fittings, architectural features, and general fabrication work. They are ideal for securing wire infill panels, supporting light rigging, attaching safety cables, or creating anchor points where loads are applied in-line with the thread. When correctly installed into a suitable substrate, they provide a dependable fixing point that is easy to inspect and maintain.

Manufactured from Grade 316 stainless steel, these eye screws offer excellent corrosion resistance in demanding environments. The addition of molybdenum in Grade 316 significantly improves resistance to chlorides, salt air, and moisture, making these fasteners particularly suitable for coastal locations, marine applications, outdoor installations, and wash-down environments. This corrosion resistance ensures long service life with minimal maintenance, even when exposed to harsh conditions.

The M6 thread size is a popular and versatile option, offering a good balance between strength and compact dimensions. It is commonly specified for balustrades, handrails, marine hardware, light structural fixings, and general stainless assemblies. The threaded shank allows secure installation into tapped holes, threaded inserts, anchors, or compatible fittings, depending on the application.

The stainless steel finish provides a clean, consistent appearance that integrates well with other stainless components, helping maintain a professional look in exposed or architectural settings. Using stainless fasteners throughout an installation also reduces the risk of galvanic corrosion when paired with stainless wire or fittings.

Select the thread size to match your fixing requirements and ensure the substrate and installation method are suitable for the intended load. For reliable performance, durability, and corrosion resistance, Grade 316 stainless steel M6 eye screws are a proven solution for both marine and architectural applications.
