RUD VRBS VIP Weld-On Load Ring ? Heavy-Duty Pivoting Lifting Point – 4t?31.5t WLL (Complete)

Description

The RUD VRBS VIP Load Ring for Welding is engineered for professional lifting operations where reliability, durability, and long-term performance are essential. Designed as a permanently welded lifting point, the VRBS delivers controlled force transfer into the supporting structure, significantly reducing stress concentrations and improving overall structural integrity.
A key advantage of the VRBS design is its split force introduction, achieved through multiple fixing points on the forged weld-on block. This allows loads to be distributed evenly into the base material, making the VRBS particularly suitable for heavy steel fabrications, machinery frames, offshore structures, and plant equipment.
The suspension ring can pivot through 180?, ensuring optimal alignment with the lifting medium. In addition, the VRBS can safely accommodate loads applied up to 90? within the load ring plane, providing greater flexibility in complex lifting scenarios and reducing the risk of unintended side loading.
Manufactured from high-quality forged steel, the weld-on block is optimised for excellent weldability. Integrated distance knobs ensure the correct spacing for root welding, supporting consistent weld quality and helping installers achieve strong, reliable weld seams in line with approved procedures.
For enhanced safety and ease of inspection, the VRBS incorporates innovative wear markings. These markings allow operators and inspectors to quickly assess wear levels and clearly identify when the lifting point has reached its discard condition, supporting preventative maintenance and reducing the risk of in-service failure.
Clear, forged markings on the body indicate the minimum Working Load Limit for all loading directions, removing ambiguity during rigging and helping ensure safe use in real-world lifting conditions.
The VRBS VIP Weld-On Load Ring has been tested and certified in accordance with BG/DGUV ?GS-HM 36? test criteria, confirming its suitability for safety-critical industrial lifting applications. Once installed correctly, the VRBS provides a robust, maintenance-friendly lifting solution with excellent resistance to wear and deformation.
