General:

An eye bolt is a bolt with a loop at one end. Because they are used to firmly attach a securing eye to a structure, so that ropes or cables may then be tied to it. Hence simply drill a hole into the concrete, hold the fixture you’re fastening over the hole, then use a hammer to tap the anchor into the hole. As the pin is hammered in, the sleeve expands outward, trapping the anchor in the hole.

Eye Bolts are measured from under the eye. Whereas Hanger bolt length is measured from end to end. Shoulder bolt length is measured as the lenght of the shoulder. Sex bolt length is measured from under the head.
