Load ring increases working load limit by 50%

RUD's LBS & RBS ranges have been re-designed and released as the VLBS & VRBS.

The company says it has significantly increased the working load limits of the load rings in order to align with the Grade 100 chain ratings. The VLBS load ring is forged out of the high strength material CrNiMo. It provides up to 50% higher working load limit, is loadable in any direction, can be tilted 180°and has a safety factor of 4:1. The two protective support lugs inside the module improve the connection with the attachment as well as protecting the clamping spring. The optimised support shape at the suspension ring enables a strong support at loads 90° to the plane of the eye. The welding block is forged out of quality welding material 1.0577+N (St 52-3) and clearly stamped with an identification number for the permissible working load limit. The patented distance lugs assist in achieving the correct root weld.
