9/16" Screw Eye, Silver

• Small 9/16" (14.29 mm) overall length for minimal-profile attachment points
• Fabricated from quality steel for dependable strength in everyday handling
• Zinc-plated finish resists rust, keeping hardware looking bright and lasting longer in humid or harsh conditions
• 5/32" (3.97 mm) eye diameter accommodates typical craft wire, hanging cord, or fine chain
• Lightweight and compact, designed not to overwhelm delicate crafts, toys, or model components
• Ideal for batch production—available in pack sizes of 100, 1,000, or bulk quantities

Thanks to their petite frame and bright finish, these screw eyes are ideal for mounting lightweight plant hangers, creating custom jewelry displays, or assembling model and toy parts. They perform well in cabinetmaking for internal organizers or drawer accents, and are widely used for stringing festive decorations or attaching metallic tags. Crafters often embed them as swivel points for miniature mobiles or kinetic art, while gardeners use them for guiding trellis wire or hanging small signs. A clever approach: use an array of these along a painted board to create a personalized key rack or earring holder tailored to your décor[56].

• Can this screw eye support heavy loads?
  No, its compact design is for light-duty support such as crafts, decorations, or small hanging objects.
• Will zinc plating protect against rust outdoors?
  The zinc finish offers basic moisture resistance for moderate outdoor use; avoid prolonged exposure to rain for best results.
• What size drill bit works best for installation?
  Use a pilot hole slightly smaller than the 1/16" wire diameter to ensure a snug and secure fit in wood or similar materials.
• Does the screw eye fit standard craft cord and small hooks?
  Yes, the 5/32" inner eye can handle common craft wire, cord, and miniature S-hooks.
• Can these be painted to match project colors?
  Absolutely—light sanding before painting offers the best adhesion for custom finishes.
• Are these compatible with plaster or brick?
  They are designed for wood or soft substrates; for masonry or plaster, use with appropriate anchors.
• Is it easy to remove and reuse these screw eyes?
  Yes, using pliers to gently twist them free; they can be reused in wood without loss of strength.
• Will bulk packs keep hardware clean and protected during storage?
  Yes, bulk packaging minimizes corrosion and damage, especially when stored in a dry, covered space.

For subtle, sturdy hardware designed for the fine details, these 9/16" screw eyes are your go-to choice. Their corrosion-resistant finish and compact profile add security and function to small-scale woodworking, décor, and creative innovations.
