Chain slings grade 120 - ICE: Balancer

About this product

RUD has always been ahead of its time when it comes to materials for lifting means. One example is the world-famous RUD ICE-Chain, which can replace a grade 8 chain of the next largest nominal thickness. Thanks to the extremely high strength of the patented material, the continuous nominal thickness increase has been achieved even with diameters of less than 16 mm. The decisive advantage: An ICE-Lifting mean or lashing chain is more than 30 percent lighter and the working ergonomics are noticeably improved.

ICE-Balancer ICE-Balancer. - Balancer connection at top: Connection by shackles. - Balancer connection at bottom: ICE-Connection links. - Easy recognition of the limit tilt angle of 10° due to special shaping on the bottom of the balancer. - Detailed information on the ICE-Balancer can be found in the operating manual. PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING WHEN USING THE ICE-BALANCER SUSPENSION: - The load must be symmetrical. - The inclination angle β must not be greater than 45° (see diagrams 1 and 2). - The inclination of the balancer must not be greater than 10° (see diagrams 3, 4 and 5). - Detailed information on the ICE-Balancer can be found in the operating manual. - Higher WLL at β = 15° or β = 30° see operating manual. With a 4-strand suspension, a maximum of only 3 strands can be assumed to be load-bearing. In unfavourable cases only 2 strands are used. Our TIP: When using a 2 x 2-strand suspension in the configuration shown, an even load distribution to all 4 strands and a 33 % higher WLL than a standard 4-strand suspension. DESIGN OF ICE-BALANCER HEAD IWK-2S CONSISTING OF: - IA link with IKZA. - VIP-Shackles. - ICE-Balancer. - 2 ICE-Connecting links. - 1 Safety factor (e. g. 4:1) for lifting means (safety against breakage). - All load-bearing elements are 100 % electromagnetically crack-tested. - Operating temperature range of the lifting means without permanent reduction of load capacity. - Maximum operating temperature of the lifting means with percentage, product-dependent load capacity reduction. - Component has been approved by the DGUV (German Social Accident Insurance) and has the corresponding certificate. - Easy testing and documentation. With the RUD BLUE-ID system (equipped with an RFID chip).
