Chain slings grade 100 - VIP: Master links

About this product

Innovation and quality made by RUD: The highly dynamic chains and components of RUD product line VIP stand for up to 30 percent higher WLL than the highest grade 8 (grade 80) available until then. And with the same chains diameter. VIP-Chains are always one nominal thickness thinner – and therefore up to 50 percent lighter. The geometric structure and the tolerances of the VIP-Chains are adapted to those of the higher grade. The chain spectrum ranges from 4 to 28 mm and from 0.63 t (MINI single-strand) to 126 t (2 x MAXI double-strand).
