2Foundry Hook
The present user´s instruction is valid for the fol-
lowing item variants of the Foundry Hook:
• IWH ICE-Foundry Hook in ICE-Pink
(Purple colour, quality grade 120, D1 stamping)
• VWH VIP-Foundry Hook in VIP-Pink
(Magenta, quality grade 100, H1 stamping)
Please read assembly instruction carefully
before initial operation of Foundry Hook.

Disregard of the assembly manual can lead
to serious physical injury and property
damage and eliminates warranty.
In doubt or in misconception please note
that the German version of this document
is decisive.
1 Safety instructions
ATTENTION
Wrong assembled or damaged lifting and
lashing means as well as improper use can
lead to injuries of persons and damage of
objects when load drops.
Please inspect all lifting points before each
use.
ATTENTION
When using hooks without a safety latch
(f.e. the Foundry Hook)
increased caution must become aect,
resp. before the usage a risk assessment
according to Betr.SichV §3 must be carried
out. Lifting means with a Foundry Hook
must only be used when unintentional
unhinge is impossible.
ATTENTION
Foundry Hooks must not be used at cons-
truction sites.
Detention under a oating load is forbidden.
Keep persons out of the hazardous area.
• Keep all body parts like ngers, hands, arms, etc. out
of the hazardous area during the lifting operation.
• Any technical modications at the Foundry Hook
are prohibited
• Please be also aware of extreme circumstances
or shock loads when selecting the used Foundry
Hook.
• Damaged or worn Foundry Hook must no longer
be used.
• Only the determined RUD round steel chain of the
correct nominal size and quality grade must be
used with the Foundry Hook.
• RUD-Foundry Hook must only be used by instructed
and competent persons considering DGUV-rules
100-500 (BGR 500), and outside Germany noticing
the country specic statutory regulations.
2 Intended use
The described Foundry Hooks must only be used for
lifting, lashing or transporting of goods, if unintentional
unhinge is prohibited. This is not valid, if an unhinge
without a rigging person is necessary due to special
risks of accidents (f.e. high temperature).
Before the usage, a risk assessment according to
Betr.SichV §3 should be carried out.
Foundry Hooks must not be used at construction
sites.
Foundry Hooks are not suitable for the transport
overhead of people.
3 Assembly- and instruction manual
3.1 General information
• Capability of temperature usage of ICE-compon-
ents (IWH):
When using the ICE-Foundry Hook at temperatures
beyond 200°C the permissible WLL of the ICE-
Foundry Hook has to be reduced:
-60°C up to 200°C no reduction
200°C up to 250°C minus 10 %
250°C up to 300°C minus 40 %
Temperatures exceeding 300°C are prohibited!
• Capability of temperature usage of VIP-compon-
ents (VWH): When using the VIP-Foundry Hook at
temperatures beyond 200°C the permissible WLL
has to be reduced:
-40°C up to 200°C no reduction
200°C up to 300°C minus 10 %
300°C up to 380°C minus 40 %
Temperatures exceeding 380°C are prohibited!
• RUD Foundry Hooks must not be used with aggres-
sive chemicals such as acids, alkaline solutions
and their vapours.
• The WLL of components are depending on the
following variables:
- Quality grade of component (pictures 1 - 3)
- Nominal size of component
- in the present case
The permissible WLL should be taken out of the
according ICE- and VIP user´s instruction (or al-
ternatively from the RUD website www.rud.com).
3.2 Hints for the assembly
Please observe correct assignment of chain and
component when assembling the Foundry Hook. The
quality grade/nominal size or the component can be
identied by the stamping at component/bolt/chain
resp. by the colour.

Basically essential:
• Assemble slotted spring pin for the securing of the
G-pin in the clevis in such a way that the slot can
be seen resp. faces the outside
• RUD G-pins are fool-proof:
- For ICE components use only the oval ICE-
G-pin (picture 1)
- For VIP components use only the round VIP-
G-pin (picture 2)
• The G-pin must be assembled captive with the
slotted pin and with the step hole in the component
(picture 5)
• Use slotted pin only once!
• Use only original RUD spare parts.
• Check nally the correct assembly (see chapter 4
Inspecting and repairing).

3.3 General user information
• Check before each usage of the self-locking clevis
hooks that the securing of the G-pin is in correct
position.
• Make sure that the load force happens in the
straight leg without being twisted, fold-over or
kinked.
• Control frequently and before each operation the
total lifting/lashing mean in regard of ongoing abi-
lity, strong corrosion, wear, deformation etc. (see
chapter 4 Inspecting and repairing).
WARNING
Wrong assembled or damaged lifting- and
lashing means as well as improper usage
can lead to physical injury and damage of
property when load falls.
Inspect lifting means before each use
carefully!
• RUD components have been designed as per DI-
NEN 818 and DIN EN 1677 for a dynamic load of
20,000 load cycles.
• Observe and be aware that multiple load
cycles can occur during a lifting operation.
• Observe the risk of product damage caused
by high dynamical inuences at high load
cycle numbers.
• BG/DGUV Germany’s employer insurance
association recommends: At high dynamical
loading with a high number of load cycles
(permanent use), the stress at WLL acc. to
FEM class 1Bm (M3 acc. to DIN EN 818-7)
must be reduced.
• Leave hazardous area when possible.
• Watch always attached loads.
• For all lifting/lashing means observe the RUD sling
chain Safety instructions for RUD lifting means
resp. the relevant WLL (ICE quality grade 120 and
VIP quality grade 100).

The permissible WLL should be taken out of the according ICE- and VIP user´s instruction
(or alternatively from the RUD website www.rud.com)
4.4 Hints for inspection/repairing
• Repair work may only be executed by qualied
specialists who can verify the necessary skills and
training.
• Please keep test protocols and records of the ins-
pection at least until the next inspection takes place.
• Only RUD original spare parts must be used and
all repairing and overhauling operations must be
documented in the chain card le (of the comple-
te lifting mean) or use the AYE-D.NET-System.
• RUD Foundry Hooks are equipped with a RUD
ID-Point® and can be identied by the unique 16
character number. This code can be captured
and transferred with the RUD ID-EASY-CHECK®
readers into the AYE-D.NET-System. This appli-
cation supports you with the administration and
documentation of your components.
• More information can be found either on the internet
or through your local RUD contact person.

4 Inspecting and repairing
4.1 Hints for the regularly inspection
The operator has to determine and dictate the neces-
sary inspection periods and the deadlines by a risk
assessment (see sections 4.2 and 4.3). The persisting
appropriateness of the lifting point must be checked by
a competent person (auditor) at least once per year.
Depending on the conditions of use e.g. frequent use,
increased wear or corrosion, it may be necessary to
carry out inspections at shorter intervals than once per
year. A verication is also required following damage
and after special events. The operator must specify
the test cycles.
4.2 Inspection criteria for the regularly
examination carried out by the operator
• Completeness of the Foundry Hook
• Complete and readable size and manufacturer sign
• Deformation or widening of the hook.
• Mechanical damage like strong notches, especially
in areas where tensile stress occurs
• Cracks or other defects especially notches at the
bearing point of the hook, at the max. until the
forged and patented wear markings are reached.
4.3 Additional inspection criteria for the
competent person resp. auditor
• Reduction of cross section cause by wear of more
than 10 %
• Strong corrosion
• Additional inspections may be necessary depen-
ding on the result of the risk assessment (e.g.
incipient cracks at load bearing parts).
