The four bolts have fractured in the same position, close to the end, and the corrosion marks in the thread suggest that they have been tightened only a few fillets in a tapped hole. This condition could be responsible for overloading the fillets, relaxing the applied bolt preload, and intensifying cyclic stresses.

Detailed aspect of the eye bolt fracture position, with strong plastic deformation indicating ductile overloading. The red marks in the thread surface of the bolt (in the left side of the image) correspond to the position where the nut was tight. Thread fillets adjacent to the fracture presented secondary cracks.
