Top 5 lifting and lashing points from RUD
We have compiled a list of the top 5 lifting and lashing points below:
VLBG-PLUS
The RUD VLBG-PLUS Load Ring comes in standard and variable bolt lengths. VLBG-PLUS has a safety factor of 4:1 and comes fully tested and certified by DGUV. It is designed for use in extreme temperatures ranging from -40˚C up to 100˚C and maximum temperature of 350˚C.
The advantages of VLBG-PLUS:
VLBS LOAD RING
The VLBS LOAD RING comes with or without an internal holding spring. It is ideal for multi-directional loading with a safety factor of 4:1 and comes fully tested and approved by DGUV.
The advantages of VLBS LOAD RING:
VRS-F STARPOINT
The VRS-F STARPOINT rotates in the direction of the load. Available in several bolt lengths with corresponding washers and crack detected lock nuts in different threads.
The advantages of VRS-F STARPOINT:
ABA WELD-ON LUG
The ABA comes in both LIFTING POINT and LASHING POINT options which are ideal for construction projects that have constant rotary motion, strong vibrations and shocks. ABA has a safety factor of 4:1 and comes fully tested and approved by DGUV.
The advantages of ABA WELD-ON LUG:
ACP-TURNADO
The RUD ACP-TURNADO with a unique spring mechanism ensures higher safety by automatically rotating in the direction of force transmission. This eliminates the risk of a sudden release of the ring from this position in the direction of force and the resulting jerky dropping of the load - which endangers the load, load handling equipment and lifting system.
The advantages of ACP-TURNADO:
RUD has a long pedigree of manufacturing chains for over 140 years including 40 years in lifting technology and load securing. When it comes to lifting, securing, or lashing, the world looks to RUD which offers over 700 different lifting and lashing points for all requirements across mining, quarries, transport, and infrastructure.
All RUD lifting and load securing products are made in Germany. Many of the standards used in the lifting and load securing industry originated from RUD, such as the inspection stamp H1 for high strength chains in 1953, approval for Grade 8 (H1-8) in 1972 and approval for Grade 12 (D1-12) for round steel chains in 2007.
