1/4″ × 3/4″ metal eye lag
Hang it off the iron.
A short self-drilling eye lag for steel deck and light-gauge steel.
Assemblies ship individually wrapped and color coded by size, so a box of thirty does not arrive as a tangled mess. Sold 10/bag through 20′ and 5/bag at 35′.
Give us the size, drop and service and we’ll spec the part number and price the build.
1/4″ × 3/4″ metal eye lag.
Allowable tension load
Manufactured to ASTM A1023 and ASTM A931. This assembly is outside the scope of ICC-ES listing PMG-1840; refer to the Technical Data Sheet for capacities. Dry locations only, static overhead support only.
Allowable tension load
Capacities from the Technical Data Sheet
Allowable tension loads per Technical Data Sheet R0.1. This assembly is outside the scope of ICC-ES listing PMG-1840, so the sheet is the published source.
| Cable | Cable capacity | 22 gauge steel | 20 gauge steel | 18 gauge steel and thicker |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| #2, 3/32″ | 175 | 98 | 128 | 175 |
| #3, 1/8″ | 320 | 98 | 128 | 215 |
- 22 gauge steel: 0.028″ design thickness
- 20 gauge steel: 0.036″ design thickness
- 18 gauge steel and thicker: 0.047″ and over
Values are the allowable pull-out of the eye lag from the deck, installed through the underside of bare steel deck. Dry interior locations only. No increase for duration of load. Connection to structure must be reviewed by the structural engineer of record.

Part numbers
Read the callout
Assemblies are sold 10/bag through 20′ and 5/bag at 35′. Devices are ordered separately unless you ask for them packed with the assembly.
Add X2 or X3 at the end of the part number for double or triple tie cables. Many other options are available. Just let us know and we will get you specifically what works for your job!

Before you install
Limits that apply on every job
Follow capacity limits
Never overload SSF Cable Assemblies. Refer to the Technical Data Sheets for complete assembly capacities.
Take angle reductions
Assemblies not installed vertically take the published angle reduction, applied to the assembly rating. When cable is looped around round duct, the resulting angle shall not exceed 60°. Y-Accessories and Y-Assemblies may not be installed at angles greater than 60°.
Never join two cables
Never join 2 cables into a single device. Voids engineering and warranty.
Do not use for lifting
Static overhead support only. Not for lifting, rigging, or fall protection.
Dry indoor use only
Not for wet, chlorinated, or otherwise corrosive environments. Use SSF cable only; plastic-coated and third-party cables are not permitted with SSF devices.
Do not paint cables. Keep cables clean.
Install in final position before painting. Devices cannot be adjusted after paint contacts the cable. Cables must be free of oil and fireproofing prior to device installation.
