12、mittee and is the first full revision of the metric edition which was published in 1968; this revision supersedes BS 4278:1968, which is now withdrawn. Previously steel eyebolts were covered in BS 529-1 andBS 529-2 (withdrawn). The standard specifies three types of eyebolt: namely the collar eyebolt

13、, the eyebolt with link and the dynamo eyebolt. Eyebolts without collars for lift suspension purposes are specified in BS 5655-8, which replaced BS 529-2. For all three types, metric dimensions and threads are specified but, in addition, full details of imperial threaded shanks are given in appendix

14、 A. These imperial threaded eyebolts are intended for replacement purposes only for assembly into imperial threaded equipment already in existence. In the previous edition of this standard only brief details concerning imperial threads were given and only collar and dynamo eyebolts were covered. Mor

15、e importantly, no advice was given on the selection of suitable forgings for imperial threading; this is now fully covered. It will be noted that eyebolts with a shank thread smaller than M12 are not specified in view of their susceptibility to damage due to over-tightening. Exceptions to this are t

16、he ) in diameter collar and dynamo eyebolts which have been retained in order to preserve the safe working load (SWL) relationship with BS 529-1 (see below). Collar eyebolts and eyebolts with link have been uprated by 25 % in this revision as a result of work undertaken by the National Physical Labo

17、ratory and the Research and Laboratories Services Division of the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). This uprating has also enabled the SWLs of imperial threaded collar eyebolts given in Table 4, to be made equivalent to those given in BS 529-1 so that they may be used for replacement purposes. Coll

18、ar eyebolts are generally used with shackles and are suitable for reduced SWLs when used for inclined loading in the plane of the eye. (See appendix B.) When used at 90 loading to the eyebolt axis (i.e. trunnions) the SWL for each eyebolt should not be more than 25 % of the SWL in axial loading mark

19、ed on the eyebolt (see appendix B). Eyebolts with link are now specified with both metric and imperial threads. These eyebolts are generally used in pairs without the need for shackles and are suitable for inclined loading in any plane at reduced SWLs (see Table 8). It should be emphasized that a co

20、llar eyebolt to Table 1 fitted with a link cannot be considered as an “eyebolt with link” to Table 2. In addition, the collar eyebolt requires a deeper tapped hole and therefore care is necessary if eyebolts with link are replaced by collar eyebolts. Dynamo eyebolts are intended for axial lifting on

21、ly and, if used in pairs a spreader beam should always be used. Loading out of axial by even 5 imposes undue stress on the screw thread run-out. For this reason collar eyebolts or eyebolts with link should be a first preference and dynamo eyebolts should be used only if axial loading can be ensured.

22、 The dangers of the mismatch arising from eyebolts being inadvertently screwed into holes with a different thread form are explained and recommendations are made in HSE Guidance Note PM 16, “Eyebolts”, and in PD 6494. In this revision of this standard certain non-preferred metric sizes which were li

23、kely to be incorrectly assembled with other metric threaded holes have been deleted. Some other metric thread sizes have been changed to give as far as possible, first choice metric threads complying with BS 3643-2.BS4278:1984 BSI 02-2000 iii Recommendations for the selection, care and use of eyebol

24、ts are given in Appendix B. Some of the material in Appendix B is based on Section 3 of the “Code of Practice for the safe use of lifting equipment”, published by the Chain Testers Association of Great Britain to whom acknowledgement is made. Users wishing to obtain more detailed information are rec

25、ommended to refer to this Code. 1) A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summar

40、e 2 andTable 5) by more than 5%. 7 Heat treatment All eyebolts, after forging, and links, after welding, shall be heated to a temperature between860 C and890 C and then quenched in oil or water and tempered at a suitable temperature between550 C and 660 C. 8 Hardness test 8.1 General. Eyebolts shall

41、 have a Brinell hardness between163 and217. Either the test shall be made in accordance with BS240-1 using a 10mm ball and a load of3000kg, or if another method is employed the conversion shall be made in accordance with BS860. 8.2 Procedure. The surface on which the impression is to be made shall b

42、e obtained by filing, grinding or smooth machining. NOTESuitable precautions should be taken to ensure that the surface tested is representative of the material and that its hardness is not affected by decarburization, carburization, or by the method used for the preparation of the test surface. 9 P

43、roof loading Each eyebolt, and eyebolt with link, after manufacture and subsequent heat treatment, shall be subjected to an axial proof load equal to at least twice the safe working load specified in Table 1, Table 2 orTable 3 or, in the case of imperial threaded eyebolts, at least twice the safe wo

44、rking load specified inTable 4,Table 5 andTable 6, which it shall withstand without showing any visible permanent set. After the removal of the proof load, each eyebolt and eyebolt with link shall be thoroughly examined by a competent person and shall be accepted only if found free from visible flaw

45、 or defect. 10 Marking 10.1 General. Each eyebolt shall be legibly and permanently marked in a manner that does not impair its mechanical strength. The symbols shall be as large as possible but in any case not less than3mm high. In the case of collar and dynamo eyebolts, the symbols shall be marked

46、on raised flat areas positioned on both sides of the lower parts of the eye as shown inFigure 1 andFigure 3. In the case of eyebolts with links, the symbols shall be marked on the side of the link as shown inFigure 2. NOTEIf (as for example in the case of smaller eyebolts) the areas mentioned above

47、provide insufficient space for marking all the requisite information, marking can be carried out on low stressed areas such as the periphery of the collar of an eyebolt. The information given in10.2 to10.5 shall be marked on each eyebolt. 10.2 Quality mark. Each eyebolt shall be marked with the symb

48、ol “M” enclosed in a circle. The quality mark shall be kept remote from any metric thread identification. NOTE1The quality mark may, if drop forged, be on the side of the crown of the eye. NOTE2In the previous issue of this standard the symbol “04” was used as the quality mark. Eyebolts with this ma
