CAUTION. BS SP 114 eye bolts have cadmium as a plating material,
which has been restricted and/or banned for use in many countries owing to
environmental and health concerns; they should not be used in new product
designs. Local officials should be consulted about any concerns on using
cadmium-plated parts.
This publication does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a

Compliance with a British Standard cannot confer immunity from
