RUD VRM Starpoint Eyenut Metric thread

Maintenance requirements are minimal. Keep eyenuts clean, protect from corrosion and protect internal threads from damage. Do not attempt to straighten bent eyenuts or re-cut threads.

Regularly inspect eyenuts and, in the event of the following defects, refer the eyenut to a Competent Person for thorough examination: illegible markings; distortion; worn, or bent shanks and threads; incomplete or incorrectly formed threads; damaged eyes; nicks, gouges, cracks, corrosion or other defects.

In the UK, the Lifting Operations & Lifting Equipment Regulations (LOLER) make it clear that all shackles and eyebolts / eyenuts used for lifting purposes are lifting accessories. They should therefore be subject to a thorough examination by a competent person at least every six months. Regardless of the prevailing legislation, the Lifting Equipment Engineers Association (LEEA) strongly recommends that this policy is adopted by all those with responsibility for ensuring the safe condition of lifting equipment.

If you are in any double please contact Ultimate Lifting Solutions to discuss your LOLER / Thorough Examination requirements, we have trained engineers that can carry out all your inspection / services either on-site or in-house
