EYE PLATE
The 3 Port 5T Marine Eye Plate emerges as a versatile anchoring solution for marine cargo securing, equipment mounting, and general rigging applications aboard vessels of all sizes. As marine operators seek space-efficient hardware that maximizes securing points without compromising deck integrity, this eye plate delivers exceptional strength in a compact design . Constructed from 316 stainless steel for superior corrosion resistance, the 3 Port 5T model features three reinforced attachment ports, each rated for 5 tons (49 kN) working load with an overall assembly safe working load of 15 tons. Measuring 8 inches in length × 4 inches in width with a 2-inch diameter central eye, it provides multiple securing options for lashings, straps, and quick-release fasteners in confined spaces. Its low-profile design minimizes trip hazards while maintaining easy access for connection operations.
Fabricated entirely from 316 stainless steel with a tensile strength of 700 MPa, the eye plate offers superior resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in saltwater environments . All surfaces undergo passivation treatment to enhance chromium oxide layer formation, while the ports feature radius edges to prevent webbing and rope abrasion. The material composition ensures compliance with FDA requirements for food-grade vessel applications.
The three strategically positioned ports (spaced 2.5 inches apart) allow simultaneous connection of multiple securing devices while distributing loads evenly across the deck mounting surface . Each port features a 1.25-inch diameter hole with a 0.25-inch thick reinforcing rim that increases localized load capacity. This design eliminates the need for multiple single-port eye plates, reducing deck penetrations and installation time.
With an overall height of just 1.5 inches when mounted, the eye plate creates minimal deck obstruction, making it suitable for high-traffic areas and cargo hold floors . The countersunk mounting holes (four 0.5-inch diameter holes) accept flush-mount fasteners that sit below the plate surface, preventing snagging of cargo or equipment. The central eye includes a 360° swivel capability for angled connections.
316 stainless steel contains molybdenum, which provides 50% better corrosion resistance than carbon steel in saltwater environments and prevents pitting that can compromise load-bearing integrity . It eliminates the need for regular painting or coating maintenance required by carbon steel hardware.
The three independent ports allow securement of multiple lashings or equipment items without line interference, enabling more efficient cargo configuration and equipment arrangement . Each port can be used independently or in combination, providing versatility for varying load sizes and shapes.
The 3 Port 5T Eye Plate can be installed on steel, aluminum, and composite deck surfaces using appropriate fasteners . For steel decks, welding is recommended for maximum strength, while stainless steel through-bolts with backing plates are suitable for aluminum and composite installations.
Yes, the 316 stainless steel construction and sealed mounting design make it ideal for offshore platforms, supply vessels, and rigs operating in harsh saltwater environments . It exceeds ISO 15621 requirements for offshore mooring fittings and maintains integrity in temperatures ranging from -40°C to 120°C.
Monthly visual inspections should check for corrosion, bent ports, or loose fasteners . Annual load testing at 125% of rated capacity is recommended for eye plates in critical applications. Any signs of deformation or corrosion pitting require immediate replacement.
