ASPA Adaptor
Thread adaptor
- Thread adapters should only be used as a reducer for already existing threads to allow the attachment of high tensile RUD lifting points. The thread adapters ae marked with the inside and outside thread diameters.
- Attention: Never use DIN 580 or standard type eyebolts in combination with RUD thread adapters!
- The WLL of the adapter is matched to the WLL of the RUD lifting point.
- The thread adapter provides spanner flats for a wrench, a goove for a hook spanner and a hole for an assembly pin.
- Care must be taken to ensure that the thread adapter is fully engaged and that the shoulder of the adapter accurately meets the bolt-on surface of the work piece. If the thread adapter is permanently installed on the work pice, RUD recommends applying the same torque as that stated for the RUD lifting point.
- To avoid misuse in combination with DIN 580 or standard type eye bolts, RUD recommends to secure the high tensile RUD lifting point into the thread adapter with ´Locite´ or similar.
- Generally, all lifting points which are permanently on the work piece, should always be secured, e.g. with ´Locite´ or similar.
