Dimensional data for M12 Lifting Eye Nuts to DIN 582, with the rated working load limit and the notes for safe installation. Values are taken from the governing standard rather than from a general machine-thread table, because this type is not selected on one.

Common Applications for M12 Lifting Eye Nuts
M12 Lifting Eye Nuts are commonly specified for medium-duty structural joints and motor / chassis mounting.
Mating Parts for M12
Pair M12 with the matching M12 bolt or screw, plus a M12 flat washer where required to distribute load on softer materials.
Technical Drawing
Customize the parameters below — every spec field is editable, and the drawing redraws to match the values you choose. Changing the size will snap the other fields to that size's standard values; you can then override any individual value.

Inside the plant
Manufactured in our own plant
This part is cold-formed, threaded, heat-treated and finished in-house. The stages below are where its class and finish are actually decided.
01
Cold heading
Wire rod is drawn to size and cold-formed into blanks. Forming rather than cutting keeps the grain flow continuous around the head, which is where a bolt is most likely to fail.
Head dimensions and under-head radius checked at set-up and per shift.
02
Thread rolling
Threads are rolled between hardened dies rather than cut. Rolled threads are stronger in fatigue than cut threads and hold pitch and flank angle far more consistently across a batch.
Go / no-go ring gauges to ISO 965 tolerance class 6g.
03
Heat treatment
Quench-and-temper brings carbon and alloy steel to the property class ordered — 8.8, 10.9 or 12.9 — with the furnace charge tracked so a finished lot can be traced back to it.
Core hardness and tensile tested per lot to ISO 898-1.
04
Surface treatment
Zinc, zinc-nickel, hot-dip galvanizing, black oxide, phosphate and Dacromet, selected against the service environment rather than against the price list.
Coating thickness and neutral salt spray hours to ISO 9227.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the height of an M12 nut?
The nominal height of a style-1 ISO 4032 M12 nut is in the spec table on this page. Style-2 (thick) is approximately 1.1× this height; thin (ISO 4035 / DIN 439) is approximately 0.5×.
What is the coarse-thread pitch of M12 for Lifting Eye Nuts?
For M12 the standard coarse pitch is 1.75 mm — this is the value used for Lifting Eye Nuts.
What clearance and tapping drill suit M12?
Use a 13.5 mm clearance hole (ISO 273 medium) for through-fixing, or a 10.2 mm tapping drill for a coarse M12 thread.
