EU DIRECTIVES ON LIFTING EYE BOLTS AND LIFTING EYE NUTS SAFETY

EU Directive EN 2006/42/CE defines lifting eye bolts and lifting eye nuts as lifting accessories. This means that the manufacturer/importer must respect all requirements outlined by EU Directives relative to marketing lifting eye bolts and lifting eye nuts in the EU. Compliance with all EU norms and specifications is guaranteed by the CE marking of the lifting eye bolts and lifting eye nuts.

Note: Pursuant to the laws and regulations on safety on the workplace, the user is also obliged to ensure that lifting eye bolts and lifting eye nuts, given that they are considered lifting accessories, possess all the characteristics required for the purpose of CE marking and that they comply with the reference Tables before they are put into use.

The EU Directive and the reference tables outline the mandatory requirements for the sale and use of lifting eye bolts and lifting eye nuts within the EU, specifically:

• Lifting eye bolts and lifting eye nuts must be supplied with certificate 3.1 EN 10204.

• Lifting eye bolts and lifting eye nuts must bear the CE marking in the prescribed format.

• Lifting eye bolts and lifting eye nuts must be marked indelibly with the manufacturer’s brand.

• The lot number must be marked indelibly on the part (Traceability in case of product fault).

• The straight lifting Working Load Limit (WLL) must be marked indelibly on the part, together with an arrow indicating the lifting direction relative to the specified working limit.

• The steel grade employed by the manufacturer must be marked indelibly on the part.

• The threading size must be marked indelibly on the part.

• Packaging must include instructions for use.

furthermore

• The manufacturer/importer must carry out 2 tests on different lifting eye bolts and lifting eye nuts for each manufactured lot: 2 straight pull tests and 2 orthogonal pull tests. The result of these tests must not be lower than 6 times the working load limit (WLL) marked on the lifting eye bolts and lifting eye nuts.

• The manufacturer/importer must carry out the chemical analysis and the mechanical tests (or possess the relevant certification) on the type of steel used for each lot. The chemical composition and the mechanical values of these tests must be in accordance with the provisions outlined by the reference standard.

• The manufacturer/importer must be able to trace at all times all the buyers of a lot of lifting eye bolts and lifting eye nuts in the event that an anomaly in the material and/or in the mechanical processing is found. To this end, the manufacturer/importer must state the lot number for each type of eye bolt and eye nut sold on the delivery note or on the sales invoice.

• The manufacturer/importer must issue certificate 3.1 EN 10204 (2.2 EN 10204 for previous version of the tables) for each lot. Users who are not in possession of the certificate must request it from the dealer before using the lifting eye bolts and lifting eye nuts, or from the manufacturer/importer if the dealer is no longer traceable. Said certificate must be provided free of charge, as it forms an integral part of the regulations and reference tables.
