Heavy-Duty Structural Anchoring: Type S Pad Eyes

Type S Pad Eyes are high-performance structural anchoring components designed for permanent welding onto steel structures to provide secure lifting and tie-down points. Engineered to interface precisely with standardized shackle sizes, these pad eyes ensure reliable load transfer in demanding industrial, maritime, and construction environments.

Superior Strength & Material Integrity
  • High Safety Factor: Engineered with a Minimum Ultimate Strength of six times the Working Load Limit (6 X WLL).
  • Premium Material: Manufactured from high-grade S355J2G3 steel.
  • Full Traceability: Every pad eye is supplied with an EN 10204 3.1 material certificate to ensure compliance and structural reliability.
  • Corrosion Protection: Units are supplied with a professional weld primer applied to protect the surface and facilitate immediate integration.
Precision Fitting & Wide Capacity Range
  • Shackle Compatibility: Designed for use with shackle sizes ranging from 3/8″ to 4″.
  • Capacity Versatility: Available in Working Load Limits (WLL) starting at 1.1 UStons up to 165.3 UStons.
  • Optimized Dimensions: Hole diameter (H) is maintained at ≤ 106% of the pin diameter to ensure a secure fit.
  • Structural Support: Total thickness (T) is designed to be ≥  75% of the shackle’s inside width for optimal load distribution.

Type S Pad Eye Technical Specifications

The following table details a selection of our Type S Pad Eye series. Please refer to technical drawings for full dimensional data (L, A, H, R, t, T) corresponding to specific shackle sizes.

⚠ Safety Warning: Always ensure the Working Load Limit (WLL) is strictly observed. Minimum Ultimate Strength is rated at 6 X WLL. For comprehensive installation and safety procedures, refer to Warning & Safety Information on pages 136-149.
