Wood Screw Eye Bolt 304 Stainless Steel Eye Bolt for Shade Sails
The wood screw eye bolt turns a beam, a joist or a pole into an anchor point for your shade sail. It screws straight into the grain, with no plugs or plates, and the wide eye holds a carabiner and a turnbuckle. It's made of 304 stainless steel, with a declared working load of 150 or 220 kg.
- Declared working load: 150 kg (M10×100) and 220 kg (M12×120), with a fourfold safety margin.
- Deep thread of 60 or 80 mm: the grip works inside the beam, not on the surface.
- Oversized eye of 22 or 25 mm: a carabiner and a turnbuckle both fit, even together.
- Two sizes available: M10×100 mm and M12×120 mm, to match your shade sail.

FAQ
FAQ
It creates a fixed, permanent anchor point on a load-bearing timber structure: once screwed in, the ring stays in place, ready for a carabiner and shade sail tensioner.
The M10×100 has a working load of 150 kg, a 60 mm thread and a 22 mm ring; the M12×120 goes up to 220 kg, with an 80 mm thread and a 25 mm ring.
It depends on the size of the sail fabric and the expected tension: for large or highly tensioned shade sails, we recommend the M12×120. If you're unsure, our free design service will point you towards the right size.
No. The eye bolt is a fixing accessory: the shade sail is purchased separately.
One for each corner of the shade sail you want to fix to a timber structure. The remaining corners are secured with wall plates or poles.
Compatible with all fixed shade sails in the catalogue, using a snap hook and tensioner: it is part of the Maanta anchoring system.
Yes: the carabiner connects the corner of the shade sail to the ring, while the turnbuckle adjusts the tension. You can find both in the Maanta anchor accessories range.
304 stainless steel, turned and polished: it stays outdoors all year round without rusting.
It is a stainless steel suitable for permanent outdoor exposure, including in coastal areas.
The declared working load is 150 kg for the M10×100 size and 220 kg for the M12×120, with verified breaking loads of 600 kg and 880 kg respectively.
It is the weight at which the anchor can safely operate: one quarter of the load that would cause it to fail, leaving a safe margin for gusts and sudden stress.
60 mm on the M10×100 size, 80 mm on the M12×120: the grip works inside the beam, not on the surface.
22 mm internal diameter on the M10×100, 25 mm on the M12×120: a carabiner and a tensioner fit comfortably together.
150 mm for the M10×100 size, 180 mm for the M12×120, ring included.
97 grams for the M10×100, 219 grams for the M12×120.
Yes, it is certified as suitable for saline and coastal environments. If you live near the sea or coast, we recommend cleaning the surface periodically to keep it in top condition.
The values refer to the eye bolt screwed fully into sound, load-bearing timber. Degraded wood or partial grip will reduce holding strength: if in doubt, have the structure assessed by a professional.
It comes down to three things, in order of importance.
- The first is the load on the fixing point, which varies depending on the size of the shade sail, the fabric, and wind exposure.
As a general rule:
the 10×100 (working load 150 kg) is suitable for shade sails up to around 3.6 m per side, made from breathable shade fabric and installed in a sheltered position;
the 12×120 (working load 220 kg) is the right choice from around 4 m per side upwards, in exposed or windy locations, and whenever the shade sail is tensioned with significant force.
Fabric is the most underrated factor: a waterproof material does not allow wind to pass through, which means the load on the fixing point increases considerably. For this reason, with a waterproof shade sail it is worth going for the 12×120 even on medium-sized installations. - The second consideration is the beam. The 12×120 has an 80 mm thread and requires solid structural timber at least 100 mm deep in the direction of screwing. If the beam is narrow — a joist of 60–80 mm — a 10×100 screwed in fully will hold better than a 12×120 that only partially engages: the stated load rating only applies when the full thread is embedded in the timber.
- The third is what needs to pass through the ring. If you are attaching a carabiner and a tensioner together, the 25 mm ring of the 12×120 gives you more comfortable clearance than the 22 mm ring.
If you are unsure, our free design service will recommend the right size for your shade sail — whether you are fitting out a British garden, a terrace, or an outdoor living space.
Yes: use a drill bit slightly smaller than the thread core, to a depth roughly equal to the length of the thread. If you are unsure about the correct bit size, our customer service team will point you in the right direction.
Drill a pilot hole into the beam, then screw the eye bolt in until the entire thread is embedded in the wood, with the ring oriented in the direction of the load.
Into load-bearing wood in good condition: beams, joists, and poles. Never into thin panels or deteriorated wood.
No: the wood thread is not designed for use with wall plugs. For brick and concrete walls, there are the wall plates and anchors available in the range, such as Landa.
Until the entire thread is working within the wood and the ring remains oriented towards the shade sail: this is how the load is transferred into the structure.
After pre-drilling, it screws in by hand; for the final turns, you can use a bar threaded through the ring to act as a lever, without marking the surface.
