Grade 100 Alloy Chain - RUD
The most technologically advanced alloy sling chain system available - with 25% higher working load capacity and greater wear resistance than Grade 80 (T) chain. This system comes with an extensive range of fittings, to offer the most innovative chain sling system available.
VIP - Special Quality
For single and multiple strand sling chains with different angles of inclination for symmetrical loading of the strands.
Available in sizes 4mm through to 22mm. Every chain link is stamped with the VIP logo. Serial and batch numbers are stamped every running metre. A highly visible colour which discolours under high temperatures and a dual process surface coating for increased corrosion resistance.
VIP Overheating Indication
This special fluorescent pink powder coating permanently changes colour at increased temperatures. Colour black signifies an application at more than 400°C (715°F). Further use is then prohibited.
Due to a special heat treatment developed by RUD, the high-dynamic VIP chains are more resistant to external mechanical wear friction and damage. Therefore, longer service life is guaranteed.
All RUD-VIP chains and components are electromagnetically crack detected to ensure greater safety.
