This product description refers to a robust and corrosion-resistant fastener, specifically designed for applications requiring a durable hanging point or attachment in various environments.

• Material: Stainless Steel 304 / 316 – This is a critical specification.
  • Stainless Steel: Signifies excellent resistance to rust and corrosion.
  • 304 Grade: A common and versatile austenitic stainless steel, offering good corrosion resistance, strength, and formability. Suitable for many general-purpose applications, including outdoor and slightly corrosive environments.
  • 316 Grade: A higher-grade austenitic stainless steel that contains molybdenum, providing superior corrosion resistance compared to 304, especially in chloride-rich environments (like marine, coastal, or chemical processing areas). The indication of “304/316” usually means the product is available in either grade, or it implies enhanced resistance leaning towards 316’s properties for critical applications.
• Length: Long – This distinguishes the screw from standard or small eye screws. A “long” screw provides deeper penetration into the substrate, leading to a stronger and more secure hold, which is essential for supporting heavier loads or securing items over a greater distance.
• Form Factor: Hooks / Eye Screw – This describes the functional head of the fastener:
  • Eye Screw: Features a circular loop (an eye) at the head, designed to allow ropes, wires, chains, or other fasteners to pass through it, creating an attachment point.
  • Hooks: Often used interchangeably with “eye screw” in this context, or it might subtly imply that the eye is slightly open to function more like a traditional hook for quick hanging and removal, though a fully closed eye is more common for “eye screw.” Assuming “eye screw” is the primary design, providing a closed loop.
• Thread Type: Self-Tapping – This indicates the screw’s ability to create its own threads in the material as it’s driven in. This simplifies installation by eliminating the need for pre-tapping. The thread profile is typically coarse like a lag screw for good grip into solid materials.

Key Features and Benefits:

• Exceptional Corrosion Resistance: The use of Stainless Steel 304 or 316 makes these screws highly resistant to rust, chemical exposure, and saltwater, ideal for harsh outdoor, marine, industrial, or coastal environments.
• High Strength and Durability: Stainless steel provides significant tensile strength and resistance to wear, ensuring a long-lasting and reliable connection, especially for heavier loads due to its long length and strong material.
• Secure Deep Penetration: The “long” design allows for greater engagement with the substrate, providing a more substantial and robust anchor point for increased load-bearing capacity.
• Easy and Efficient Installation: The self-tapping thread allows for straightforward installation directly into wood, plastics, and other suitable materials, often requiring just a pilot hole (especially for harder materials) and no pre-threading.
• Versatile Attachment Point: The eye/hook design offers a strong and reliable point for hanging a wide range of objects, securing cables, creating tensioning points, or attaching ropes and chains.

Typical Applications:

• Marine and Boating: Securing lines, fenders, canvas, or other equipment on boats and docks due to excellent saltwater resistance.
• Outdoor Structures: Hanging heavy outdoor lighting, garden tools, hammocks, or securing tarps and shade structures.
• Construction and Roofing: Anchorage points for safety lines, securing ventilation ducts, or other structural attachments.
• Industrial and Agricultural: For securing machinery components, attaching fencing, or creating tie-down points.
• Heavy-Duty Home and Commercial Use: Anywhere a long, strong, and corrosion-resistant hanging or attachment point is needed.
