eyebolt
Loop-headed metal fastener
An eyebolt is a bolt with a looped head instead of a slotted or hexagonal one, designed for attaching ropes, cables, or hooks: We secured the tarp with eyebolts along the deck.
Eyebolts are common in rigging, towing, and anchoring applications where a fixed attachment point is needed.
