Advantages of VIP-Lifting Chain in Special Quality
Safe WLL up to 30 % compared with the highest existing quality Grade 8… offered in the same
chain diameter.
Distinct fluorescent PINK powder coating and identification stamp »VIP« on every chain link and
component. Eliminates confusion with other quality classes. The surface quality corresponds to a
zinc phoshated finish to ensure longer lifetime.
The chain diameters VIP 16, VIP 20 and VIP 22 mm in VIP special quality are replacing the
diameters 18, 22 and 26 mm in Grade 8. One chain size smaller can be used therefore reduced
handling weight.
Identification tag with
multi function:
Easy examination of the
three wear areas for
sling chains (wear of
diameter, elongation
caused by overloading)
by the shape of the
patented identification tag. The inspection data can be documented on the tag.
Heat indicator:
The pink powder coating changes its colour
when being used at temperatures above 200°C
(392°F). If the chain is heated above 400°C (752°F)
the colour is deep black showing bubbles and
should be taken out of service.
Chain sizes ranging WLL from Ø 4mm to
Ø 22mm. From 630 kg to 20000 kg, in 1-leg
application. Up to 56400 kg in 4-leg application.
Master link selection for every crane hook:
The chain connecting link is attached to corresponding master link in a permanent, but flexible way.
With the fool-proof fork head connection it is always assured that only the correct VIP chain can be
connected. The assortment ranges from the smallest size of VBK-link for hoist hooks up to 50 t
crane hooks B = 10" (B = 250mm) for 1- to 4-leg application.
The patented multi shortening claw VMVK can be fitted on the chain leg at any position. No
additional chain- and coupling elements are required. A robust safety bolt with spring bearing
prevents from accidental loosening of the chain in loaded as well as in unloaded condition. Ideal
chain link shaped pocket support – Thus no reduction in WLL!
VIP Cobra hook VCGH:
The weak points of the common clevis hooks have been eliminated. No protruding tip of the hook.
Forged safety latch engages in the tip of the hook, therefore protected against lateral bending and
also assures 100% safe WLL. Triple coiled 2 leg corrosion protected spring. Thickened tip of the
hook protects against misuse. Wearing edges on both sides protect against wear when hauling the
chain assemblies. Gauge marks for measuring the opening of the hook
