In terms of fasteners, ring bolts and eye bolts are two commonly used types. Although their functions are similar, there are differences between them. We will explore their differences through composition, application, advantages and disadvantages.
Composition.
A ring bolt, also known as a “ring bolt”, usually consists of a threaded handle with a circular hole at the end. The eyes can be aligned with the calves or at right angles to the calves. The screw bolt of the loose-knot bolt is composed of two threaded holes with a rotatable link in the middle, which can adjust the tension between the holes.
Application.
Ring bolts and eye bolts play an important role in various applications. Ring bolts are used to lift heavy loads and secure objects in place. They can be connected directly to machinery, walls, or other structures using anchors or screws, providing stability and safety. Loose-knot bolts are mainly used to connect ropes, cables or chains and adjust the tension between them. They are often used in marine applications, rigging and buildings that require anchoring or suspension systems.
Advantages and disadvantages.
Ring bolts are relatively easy to install, providing a simple and safe solution for lifting or fixing heavy objects. They can also resist bending or breaking under load. However, it does not provide much room for adjustment, so the item can only be fixed in a fixed position. The eye bolts provide a high degree of adjustment, allowing tension to be easily controlled. They are versatile, easy to use, and can usually work in small spaces. However, the installation may be more complex, and the central link may be a potential weak link and may fail under load.

Conclusion.

Ring bolts and eye bolts have different components and have different functions in different applications. These two types of bolts have their own advantages and disadvantages and are suitable for different applications. By understanding their differences, users can choose the best options according to their specific needs.
