Eye rivets solve a specific problem: you need a permanent, load-bearing attachment point without adding much weight or bulk. The shaft is machined for a precise fit into a pre-drilled hole, then the tail end is upset, widened under force, so the rivet locks itself into the material with no threads or nuts to back off over time. Built from type 316 stainless steel, they hold up well in outdoor, marine, or otherwise corrosive environments where a standard rivet would eventually fail.

Key Features

• Closed eye head provides a built-in attachment point for rope, cable, or shackles
• Precision-machined shaft for a tight, consistent fit in the drilled hole
• Upset tail creates a permanent, self-locking installation
• Type 316 stainless steel for added corrosion resistance in marine and outdoor use

Applications

• Lightweight structural and equipment fastening where strength-to-weight matters
• Marine hardware and outdoor equipment exposed to salt air or moisture
• Cable, rope, or tie-down attachment points on trailers, enclosures, and fixtures
• Panel and fixture assembly where a permanent, low-profile fastener is preferred
