Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can these be used outdoors year-round?
A: Yes. The zinc-plated finish offers rust protection, making them suitable for long-term outdoor exposure.

Q: What does the “12” in 75mm x 12 mean?
A: It refers to the gauge (thickness) of the vine eye shaft. In this case, 12-gauge offers a strong and sturdy build for general use.

Q: Can I use these for heavy-duty hanging?
A: These are suitable for medium-weight applications such as garden wire, fencing mesh, and plant support. For heavy-duty loads, a larger or stronger eye bolt may be more appropriate.

Q: Do I need tools to install these?
A: Not necessarily. They can be screwed in by hand, but using a rod or screwdriver through the eye provides better torque and ease of installation, especially in harder wood.

Q: Are wall plugs required for use in brick or concrete?
A: Yes, when installing into masonry or concrete, use with appropriate wall plugs or anchors for a secure and safe installation.
