The Product in History
Screw eyes are among the oldest forms of fastening hardware, with origins tracing back to early metalworking techniques in the 18th century. Traditionally used in shipbuilding to secure rigging lines and sails, their design evolved over time to accommodate smaller-scale applications in furniture making and household projects. Today, screw eyes are indispensable in modern crafting and DIY culture due to their simplicity and effectiveness.
Their use in woodworking projects has been particularly notable in creating functional yet decorative elements like hanging shelves or plant holders. The introduction of zinc-coated steel has further expanded their utility by improving durability in outdoor settings.

Tips & Tricks
- Pre-drill holes slightly smaller than the thread diameter to prevent wood splitting during installation.
- Use pliers for a firm grip when screwing into hard materials like oak or maple.
- When working with raw wood materials, seal exposed surfaces with mineral oil or polyurethane to protect against moisture.
- For crafts involving paint or stain, apply finishes before attaching the screw eye for cleaner results.
- Store unused screw eyes in a dry place to maintain their zinc coating's integrity over time.
