The M24 size of Lifting Eye Bolt is dimensioned by GB/T 825 / DIN 580. The tables below give the dimensional row from the standard, the drill and spanner sizes that go with it, and the assembly torque per property class. The technical drawing on this page redraws to the exact values selected.
M24 Dimensional Row (GB/T 825 / DIN 580)
| Size | Pitch (mm) | Length L (mm) | Head diameter dk (mm) | Head height k (mm) | Hex socket s (mm) | Reference standard |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| M24 | 3.0 | 150 | 36.0 | 24 | 19.0 | ISO 4762 / GB/T 70.1 |
Spanner & Drive for M24 Lifting Eye Bolt — GB/T 825 / DIN 580 (Series 036)
The hex socket for M24 Lifting Eye Bolt — GB/T 825 / DIN 580 (Series 036) 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.
Hole Sizes for M24
| Coarse-thread pitch (ISO 724) | 3 mm |
|---|---|
| Through-hole / clearance (ISO 273 medium) | 26 mm |
| Tapping drill, coarse thread | 21 mm |
Tightening Torque for M24
| Class 8.8 (dry, ~µ 0.125) | ≈ 710 Nm |
|---|---|
| Class 10.9 (dry, ~µ 0.125) | ≈ 1000 Nm |
| Class 12.9 (dry, ~µ 0.125) | ≈ 1200 Nm |
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.
Proof Load & Strength for M24
| Tensile stress area As (ISO 898-1) | 353 mm² |
|---|---|
| Proof load, class 8.8 | 212 kN |
| Proof load, class 10.9 | 293 kN |
| Proof load, class 12.9 | 342 kN |
| Min. ultimate tensile, class 8.8 | 282 kN |
Proof load = stress area × proof stress per ISO 898-1. Design joints so the working preload stays below the proof load of the selected class.
M24 Lifting Eye Bolt — GB/T 825 / DIN 580 (Series 036) Weight
A steel M24 lifting eye bolt at the listed 150 mm length weighs approximately 1,199 g each — about 1,199 kg per 1,000 pieces. Stainless A2/A4 weighs roughly the same (density 7.9–8.0 g/cm³). Actual weight varies slightly with head form, thread and finish; use this figure for freight estimation only.
Common Applications for M24 Lifting Eye Bolt — GB/T 825 / DIN 580 (Series 036)
M24 Lifting Eye Bolt — GB/T 825 / DIN 580 (Series 036) are commonly specified for heavy assembly and large machine mounts.
Installation Tips for M24 Lifting Eye Bolt — GB/T 825 / DIN 580 (Series 036)
- 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.
- At M24 the stretch in the bolt becomes the controlling factor — for critical joints, use angle-controlled or stretch-controlled tightening instead of pure torque.
Mating Parts for M24
For M24, pair with a M24 hex nut (ISO 4032 / DIN 934) and, where used, a M24 flat washer (ISO 7089 / DIN 125A) under the head and under the nut.
