Spanner & Drive for M10 Lifting Eye Bolt — GB/T 825 / DIN 580 (Series 037)
The hex socket for M10 Lifting Eye Bolt — GB/T 825 / DIN 580 (Series 037) is shown in the spec table — use the matching Allen / hex key (an ISO 2936 hex key set covers the full range). A T-handle Allen key gives the best feel for setting preload by feel; for production work use a torque-controlled driver.

Indicative dry-joint values. Lubrication can lower the required torque by 15–25%. Always confirm against the joint design, especially when going up a strength class.
Installation Tips for M10 Lifting Eye Bolt — GB/T 825 / DIN 580 (Series 037)
- Use a quality Allen key fully seated in the socket — partial engagement is the most common cause of stripped sockets at this size.
- For countersunk and button-head variants, chamfer the through-hole to seat the head flush without preloading the head/shank fillet.
Mating Parts for M10
For M10, pair with a M10 hex nut (ISO 4032 / DIN 934) and, where used, a M10 flat washer (ISO 7089 / DIN 125A) under the head and under the nut.
When to Step Up or Down from M10
When the joint preload approaches the proof load of M10 class 8.8, step up to M12 class 8.8 (or move to M10 class 10.9). When the joint is over-specified, M8 often saves weight and cost without losing the safety margin.
