If an eye bolt is used horizontally the capacity is reduced by what pecentage of the eye bolts strength?

According to information on the Chicago Hardware web site: "Working load limits for eye bolts are based on straight vertical lift in a gradually increasing manner. Angular load lifts will significantly lower working load limits and should be avoided whenever possible. If an angular lift is required, a properly seated Shoulder Pattern eye bolt must be used. Loads should always be applied to the eye bolts in the plane of the eye, not at an angle to this plane. Angular lifts must never be more than a 45 degree pull." The lift capacity of a shoulder eye bolt is shown to be reduced by 75% when used at a 45 degree angle. Example: 3/4-10 shoulder eye bolt @ straight pull = 6000lbs. At a 45 degree pull the same eye bolt is shown at 1500lbs. Refer to: http://www.chicagohardware.com

They are designed to have a rope or cable fed through the ring in order to lift objects. The ring can be drop forged (one single piece, the eye being entirely closed) or bent to form a loop. Bent eye bolts should only be used in light duty applications and should never be used to execute angular lifts.
