Rigging Hardware — Eyebolt Angular Loading
Eyebolt Angular Loading capacity check with the standard derating rules applied.
No hardware loses capacity to angle as savagely as an eyebolt — 45° of pull leaves 30% of the rating, and plain (unshouldered) eyebolts get NO angular allowance at all. Swivel hoist rings keep 100% at any angle and cost a fraction of one dropped machine; the verdict above says when.
Formula
Note: Rigging and crane decisions are life-safety critical. This calculator is a planning aid — the load chart, sling tags, site lift plan and a qualified lift director govern every real lift.

About Rigging Hardware — Eyebolt Angular Loading
Rigging Hardware — Eyebolt Angular Loading computes the governing relationship ASME B18.15 practice: 100% @0° · ~55% @15° · ~30% @45° · ~25% @60° · prohibited beyond live as you type. No hardware loses capacity to angle as savagely as an eyebolt — 45° of pull leaves 30% of the rating, and plain (unshouldered) eyebolts get NO angular allowance at all. Swivel hoist rings keep 100% at any angle and cost a fraction of one dropped machine; the verdict above says when. Defaults are pre-filled with realistic values for this exact scenario, and the worked example substitutes your numbers step by step so the math is never a black box.
How to use Rigging Hardware — Eyebolt Angular Loading
- 1Enter your values — Eyebolt vertical WLL, Pull angle from vertical (sensible defaults are pre-filled).
- 2Read the live results: Capacity at this angle.
- 3Check the "with your numbers" line to see ASME B18.15 practice: 100% @0° · ~55% @15° · ~30% @45° · ~25% @60° · prohibited beyond substituted step by step.
- 4Adjust inputs until the scenario matches yours, then copy or share the result.
Why use Rigging Hardware — Eyebolt Angular Loading?
- ✓Instant, free and private — every calculation runs client-side in your browser; nothing is uploaded
- ✓Built on the stated formula ASME B18.15 practice: 100% @0° · ~55% @15° · ~30% @45° · ~25% @60° · prohibited beyond with authoritative sources cited on the page (ASME B30.5/B30.9/B30.20 — Cranes, slings and below-the-hook devices; Wire Rope Technical Board — Wire Rope Users Manual, 4th ed.)
- ✓No hardware loses capacity to angle as savagely as an eyebolt — 45° of pull leaves 30% of the rating, and plain (unshouldered) eyebolts get NO angular allowance at all.
- ✓SI ⇄ Imperial toggle converts your inputs in place, so you can work in the units your drawings use
Frequently asked questions
What formula does the rigging hardware — eyebolt angular loading use?+
It evaluates ASME B18.15 practice: 100% @0° · ~55% @15° · ~30% @45° · ~25% @60° · prohibited beyond, exactly as published. Sources: ASME B30.5/B30.9/B30.20 — Cranes, slings and below-the-hook devices; Wire Rope Technical Board — Wire Rope Users Manual, 4th ed..

How should I read the result — and how far can I trust it?+
No hardware loses capacity to angle as savagely as an eyebolt — 45° of pull leaves 30% of the rating, and plain (unshouldered) eyebolts get NO angular allowance at all. Rigging and crane decisions are life-safety critical. This calculator is a planning aid — the load chart, sling tags, site lift plan and a qualified lift director govern every real lift.
When is this calculator the right tool for the job?+
Eyebolt Angular Loading capacity check with the standard derating rules applied. A free crane load, wind & rigging safety tool. Swivel hoist rings keep 100% at any angle and cost a fraction of one dropped machine; the verdict above says when. For neighbouring scenarios, the related tools below cover the same engine with different presets.
Does it support both metric and imperial units?+
Yes — the SI ⇄ Imperial toggle converts the values already in the fields, preserving the physical quantity, so you can flip mid-calculation without re-entering anything.
