Eye Pins, Split Pins & Eye Plates

Eye pins were important fastening devices used on sailing ships for various purposes. These pins were typically made of metal, such as iron or bronze, and had a distinctive shape characterized by a straight body with a loop or eye at one end. The eye provided a convenient attachment point for securing ropes, lines, or other rigging elements. Eye pins were commonly employed in rigging systems to secure lines to various fittings, such as deadeyes, chainplates, or mast hoops. The eye of the pin allowed for easy attachment and adjustment of the rigging, ensuring proper tension and alignment. Eye pins were also used in other areas of the ship, such as securing cargo, attaching blocks or pulleys, or fastening panels or covers. Their versatility and reliability made them a practical and widely used component in the maritime industry.
