RUD chains for the foundry.

With the case-hardened round steel chains for foundries, RUD offers a special chain that has been developed in co-operation with well-known hoist manufacturers. These chains are designed for high temperatures, heavy loads and contamination. Difficult conditions for chain lubrication are defied.

Advantages and special features at a glance

  • Highly wear-resistant
  • Increased surface hardness and greater case-hardening depth than DAT chains
  • Very high resistance to heavy soiling
  • Suitable for high/heavily fluctuating temperatures
  • HS60/70 similar to DT from DIN EN 818-7
  • Reduced load capacity and elongation at break due to extremely high wear resistance
  • Chain must NOT be lubricated in order to achieve perfect wear behaviour
