Hi
Does anyone know where to get garage eye loops (see attached pic) other than turner leisure ?

 

[pappajohn]

EBay.
Search lashing/tie down rings in trailer section.

 

[Localdave]

Thanks I will have a look was not sure what they are called

Fold down, flanged ones would be better as they fold almost flat when not in use leaving the floor almost unobstructed.

 

[pappajohn]

Just realised.....do they fit in a slider rail on the floor /wall.
If so I doubt you will find on eBay in trailers or vehicles.

Picking up new (to me) Hymer and going by the pictures it has a rails with slots to slide these things into to secure stuff in garage

Fiamma HERE

 

[Silver-Fox]

If you can't find any at a reasonable price you could always make the piece that goes in the slide channel.
If you have drill, taps etc

 

[Norfolk Red]

Fiamma on e-bay is the place to go. Bid for 2 and won, delivered on Monday £11.00 including postage, happy bunny.

Turners are selling the Fiamma ones and they are not the same as come with my Hymer. If you want the Fiamma ones try Johns Cross as they are Fiamma's UK agent.

I had six on mine when I got it new, but I need a load more as there is NEVER enough of them. Hymer ones are a bit dear though. they have an S shaped nut that can be put in and out easily. Marine chandlers sell eyelets like that but use and ordinary bolt from the slider side.
However I do need to get some more if only to keep all my bits off the floor to stop them soaking up the leaking water that gets in there.

 

[MikeD]

The bit with the loop is called an "eye bolt". You can buy eye nuts as well. Stainless steel 8mm would be around a £2 each.

The problem would be getting the square threaded "nut" section.

They are the ones that Hymer use, but they appear bloody expensive. A few months ago Brownhills were selling the whole thing for about £14 for 4. Seems cheap now.

Yes but for 50, but you need a large garage..........worked out about 0.5 euro each inc postage, but no washer or eye ring.

Are you sure they are not each? How good is your German?

 

[SandraL]

My german is lousy, but when I bought them in 2014 I paid 25 euro and got 50 of them. Yes do have a few left but am off travelling, if anyone wants some at cost plus p&p ask me in April.
