Default Tip-up hardware call-out?

Could someone look at their plans and tell me what eyebolt is used on the tip-up hinge pivot bolt? I am away from my plans and wanted to place a Spruce order. RV 7 of course. Thanks!

AN43B-16 is on the drawing, but I seem to vaguely remember that a longer one was better. You might get one each a notch longer for the effective length.

Mine is all buried now, or I would just measure for you.

Yep, that's my plan. I trimmed them per plans but still a little short to my liking. Thanks!

AN43B-16 is correct ... I trimmed mine and beveled the end a bit for easier engagement. No issues with the length here. Fuse is still open ... lemmie know if you'd like some sample photos, etc.
