RUD PowerPoint Star

The demand for loads
to be turned, swiveled and twisted during the handling process of a project has
certainly increased over the years. Loads can easily be damaged and lifting
systems can be considerably overloaded. Mould and die manufacturers are prime
examples of this, when moulds or dies must be flipped the lifting points they
use need to swivel and pivot at the same time.

RUD know how
important it is to offer an ultimate safety factor through their lifting points
which they have done through their PowerPoint Star. The
PowerPoint Star is an extremely robust lifting point which has the ability to
pivot in any direction, allowing the lifting and turning of goods to run
smoothly, as well as reducing costs to damaged tools. It offers a unique double ball bearing system which provides a smooth and
efficient swivel action when turning loads and
is operational to temperatures as low as -40 degrees.

The forged safety latch protects against
lateral bending, as well as the thickened tip of the hook which prevents handlingmalpractices and resists bending. These features
therefore provide an exceptional safety factor, a paramount feature when
lifting and moving heavy goods.

The PowerPoint Star is extremely popular
due to its “Clevis Fitting” which allows 3
types of connections into the clevis; chain, hooks or most commonly used a
master ring. The PowerPoint Star therefore provides 3 alternatives from one
component.

RUD provide standard and tailored solutions
to meet even the most demanding environments, helping
to deliver applications that are catered to specific requirements, project aims
and environments. Top quality products combined with technological
innovations and experience make RUD a top choice for all your lifting
requirements.
