    Frequently Asked Questions

    How do you use eye screws?

    Eye screws provide anchor support for hanging objects. To use them for securing canopies and tarps, always choose the right size screws for your load. Use them for attaching frames to tarps, securing foot pads and replacing missing fasteners.

    How are eye screws measured?

    Measure eye screws by shaft length (from the tip to the loop bottom), the thread diameter, thread count per inch, and the inside diameter of the loop.

    How do you install eye screws securely?

    Pre-drill a pilot hole into wood or another sturdy surface, twist the eye screw into the hole by hand or using a screwdriver or driver bar. Once in place, you can run bungee cords, rope or tarp ties through the screw's eye.

    How do you put eye screws in wood?

    Start by marking the spot where you want the screw to go, then drill a small pilot hole using a bit slightly smaller than the screw's shaft. This prevents the wood from splitting and makes it easier to drive the screw in. Insert the eye screw into the hole and turn it clockwise by hand. For better grip and torque, slide a screwdriver or rod through the eye and twist until it's snug.

    How do you remove snake eye screws?

    To remove snake eye screws, you'll need a spanner bit or snake eye screwdriver that matches the hole spacing. Insert the tool firmly into the holes and turn counterclockwise. It's always smart to work slowly and apply steady pressure to avoid damaging the surrounding material.

    Can eye screws be used outdoors?

    Yes. Galvanized steel eye screws are ideal for outdoor use with canopy frames and tarps. They're great for securing canopies, tarps, tarp tents and anchoring canopy cords to decks, fences or sheds.
