Wichard 5/8 in UNC 1-1/16 in Stainless Eye Nut

The Wichard 5/8 in UNC Eye Nut 1-1/16 in Diameter provides a threaded eye for making a fastening or tie-down connection. This version uses a UNC imperial thread. The forged eye is intended to screw onto a compatible male-threaded fitting. The opening provides an attachment point for suitable line or hardware.

Wichard lists fastening, towing, and waterski-line attachment among possible applications. The thread must match in both diameter and pitch, not just approximate outside size. A compatible stud and its mounting structure must carry the applied load. Wichard specifies 316L stainless steel for this size.

Check available thread engagement before tightening the eye nut. Connection loads and direction should be appropriate for the particular mounting point. The finished connection should be evaluated as a complete threaded fastening assembly. Browse more sailing hardware for related deck and rigging equipment.
