We present the analysis of 11,589 eclipsing binary stars identified in 21 OGLE-III Galactic disk fields toward constellations of Carina, Centaurus, and Musca. All eclipsing binaries but 393 objects are new discoveries. The binaries have out-of-eclipse brightness between I=12.5 and I=21 mag. The completeness of the catalog is estimated at a level of about 75%. Comparison of the orbital period distribution for the OGLE-III disk binaries with systems detected in other recent large-scale Galactic surveys shows the maximum around 0.40 d and an almost flat distribution between 0.5 and 2.5 d, indepedent of population. Among thousands of variables we have found 10 doubly eclipsing objects and one eclipsing-ellipsoidal object, of which 9 are candidates for quadruple systems. We also identify 10 eclipsing subdwarf-B-type binary stars and numerous eclipsing RS Canum-Venaticorum-type variables. All objects reported in this paper are part of the OGLE-III Catalog of Variable Stars.
