Galvanized Eye Bolts
Galvanized Eye Bolts – Built for Strength and Outdoor Durability
Galvanized eye bolts are the dependable, cost-effective choice for general-purpose anchoring, rigging, and lifting. At Fasteners Plus, our selection of hot-dip galvanized eye bolts is built to last, resisting rust and corrosion in outdoor and exposed environments.
Whether you’re installing anchors in treated lumber, hanging equipment in a warehouse, or securing cables on job sites, these eye bolts hold up to the elements and the workload.
Why Use Hot-Dip Galvanized Eye Bolts?
Our eye bolts are finished with hot-dip galvanization, not electroplated zinc. This process creates a thick, bonded zinc coating that provides superior protection in moisture-prone or outdoor applications.
Galvanized eye bolts are ideal for:
- General construction and framing
- Pole barn and fencing work
- Trailers and utility installations
- Outdoor rigging and anchoring
- Agricultural and industrial facilities
They're the go-to when you need strength and weather resistance, without the cost of stainless.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does “hot-dip galvanized” mean?
Hot-dip galvanizing involves dipping steel in molten zinc, which creates a thick, bonded coating that protects against corrosion better than standard zinc plating.
Are galvanized eye bolts good for outdoor use?
Yes. They are one of the best options for general outdoor use, offering strong corrosion resistance in weather-exposed or damp environments.
Can I use these for marine environments?
Not recommended. For saltwater or highly corrosive settings, choose 316 stainless steel. Galvanized is best for general exposure, not marine-grade conditions.
What are common uses for galvanized eye bolts?
They're used in framing, construction, fencing, trailers, industrial equipment mounting, agricultural work, and utility rigging.
Do I need to worry about rusting?
The hot-dip galvanized coating resists rust, but over time it can wear down, especially in highly abrasive or acidic environments. For maximum longevity, avoid direct contact with treated lumber unless approved.
