Lightweight Grade 120 Lifting Solutions
In mining, the size and weight of your equipment has a direct impact on yield and productivity. Our lifting and lashing solutions can increase efficiency and boost productivity.
RUD’s ICE Grade 120 chains are 30% lighter with 60% higher breaking force than Grade 80 chains. They are extremely robust, tough, resilient to sharp and rough edges and ideal for the harsh mining environment. The reduction in weight of more than 30% is a major safety advantage.
ICE Chains are assembled, and proof load tested in Brisbane. All RUD ICE sling assemblies are proof loaded at our 6000m2 facility in Brisbane – meaning you have peace of mind knowing that the sling is safe and able to perform the job it’s designed for – lifting safely.
