Product Overview:

These robust screw eyes from ForgeFix deliver reliable performance for all your fixing needs. Each screw eye features premium zinc plating, providing superior corrosion resistance for lasting durability in various environments.

• Simple Installation: You can screw these directly into timber and similar materials. For optimal results, start with a 5mm drill bit to create a pilot hole.
• Adaptable Mounting: Compatible with all types of wall plugs for secure installation in various materials.

Frequently Asked Questions:

• What materials can I install these screw eyes into?
  These screw eyes work well with timber and similar materials. For masonry or harder surfaces, use appropriate wall plugs for secure mounting.
• Why is zinc plating important?
  Zinc plating provides excellent corrosion resistance by forming a protective barrier. If damaged, the zinc acts as a sacrificial anode, continuing to protect the underlying metal.
• Do I need to drill a pilot hole?
  Yes, drilling a 5mm pilot hole is recommended to prevent splitting the material and ensure proper installation.
• What's the maximum weight these screw eyes can hold?
  The weight capacity depends on the mounting material and installation method. Always test the installation before applying the full load.
• Can these be used outdoors?
  Yes, the zinc plating makes these screw eyes suitable for outdoor use, offering protection against weather and moisture.
• How far should I space multiple screw eyes when creating a line?
  Space screw eyes based on your specific needs, typically 30-60cm apart for most applications. Consider the weight and tension of attached items when determining spacing.
