Eye nut for overhead lines | hot-dip galvanized | 63.5x76.2mm | Ø38mm | carbon steel

Oval Eye Nut – a mechanical overhead power line fitting designed for use in power transmission and distribution lines, pole assemblies and other energy infrastructure fastening systems. The integrated closed eye forms a mechanical connection point to which other overhead line fittings specified by the project can be attached.

The product is made of carbon steel and protected by hot-dip galvanizing. The zinc coating helps protect the steel against corrosion, making the component suitable for long-term use in outdoor electrical infrastructure.

Application

The eye nut is designed for use as a mechanical connecting and fastening element in overhead power line structures. It can be used in fittings assemblies for power transmission lines, distribution networks, electrical substations and other energy infrastructure installations.

The closed oval eye provides a strong connection point for mechanical fittings, while the internal thread in the lower section allows the component to be screwed onto a suitable threaded rod or another compatible threaded element.

Oval eye design

The product features a closed oval-profile eye. This construction forms a defined mechanical fastening point and helps transfer load through the solid steel body.

Hot-dip galvanizing

The carbon steel surface is protected by hot-dip galvanizing. The zinc coating forms a protective layer that helps reduce the effect of moisture and atmospheric exposure on the base metal.

This type of surface treatment is widely used for outdoor overhead line fittings because these components are exposed for long periods to precipitation, humidity and temperature fluctuations.
