RUD WPPH-KA PowerPoint Weldable VIP Chain Connection ? Heavy-Duty Fixed Lifting Point for Extreme Loads – 31.5t WLL

Description

The RUD WPPH-KA PowerPoint for VIP Chain Connection is engineered specifically for very high-capacity lifting tasks where reliability, precision and structural integrity are critical. As part of the RUD PowerPoint and VIP lifting system, the WPPH-KA provides a fixed, weld-on solution that enables direct chain attachment without the need for hooks, shackles or intermediate connectors.
Unlike rotatable lifting points, the WPPH-KA is non-rotatable, making it ideal for controlled lifting operations where load direction is known and must remain constant. Once professionally welded into position, it becomes a permanent lifting interface that offers predictable load behaviour and maximum operational safety, even in the most demanding industrial environments.
With an impressive Working Load Limit of 31.5 tonnes, the WPPH-KA is designed for applications such as heavy machinery handling, structural steel lifting, large fabricated assemblies and plant installation projects. Its compact geometry allows it to be integrated into load-bearing structures where space is limited but lifting performance cannot be compromised.
The WPPH-KA is optimised for direct RUD VIP chain connection, ensuring a non-mix-up system that maintains the integrity of the VIP lifting range. By eliminating additional connecting elements, it reduces overall system height, minimises potential wear points and improves force transmission directly into the welded structure. This results in efficient load distribution and reduced stress concentrations at the lifting interface.
Manufactured from high-strength forged steel, the WPPH-KA is built to withstand intensive use in harsh industrial conditions. Clear and permanent WLL markings support safe operation, easy identification and compliance with inspection requirements under UK lifting regulations such as LOLER. The defined welding seam specification (HY 10 + a15) ensures secure attachment when installed by a qualified welder in accordance with recognised welding standards.
Tested in line with BG/DGUV test criteria ?GS-HM 36?, the WPPH-KA meets stringent safety requirements for professional lifting applications. Its robust, low-profile design makes it a preferred choice for engineers and lifting professionals who require a high-capacity, fixed chain lifting point that delivers consistent performance and long-term reliability.
For projects involving extreme loads and permanent lifting solutions, the RUD WPPH-KA PowerPoint offers confidence, durability and seamless integration within the VIP lifting system.
