INOX-STAR®, metric thread
Designed for lifting applications requiring corrosion resistance and versatility. Its distinctive pentagonal shape differentiates it from standard eyebolts, enhancing safety and identification.
Eyebolt vs. Starpoint
RUD offers two primary types of lifting points: the traditional Eyebolt (DIN 580) and the VRS Starpoint swivel eyebolt. Here's a comparison highlighting their main differences:
| Feature | Eyebolt (DIN 580) | Starpoint Swivel Eyebolt |
|---|---|---|
| Design | Simple looped design. | Star-shaped design with a striking fluorescent pink powder coating for clear distinction. |
| Rotation | Fixed position; does not rotate. | Fully rotatable 360°, allowing alignment in the direction of the pull. |
| Load Direction | Must be aligned precisely with the direction of the load to avoid unsafe lateral forces. | Can adjust to the load direction before loading, accommodating side loads effectively. |
| Safety Features | Limited to axial loading; lateral loading is not recommended. | Equipped with a specifically engineered Grade 10.9 captive hexagon socket screw and clear indication of Working Load Limit (WLL) for side load directions. |
