Drag Chain
Introduction
What are energy chains?
Energy chains (also called energy supply chains, e-chains) are mechanical machine elements. They are used to guide and protect energy, data and signals that have to withstand the most diverse environmental influences. The decisive fact about cable guides is the symbiosis of the components moving against each other. They include cables, hoses, interior separation elements, strain relief devices and guide troughs.
The materials used have to be optimally matched to each other so that maximum operating times and a long service life are achieved. Thanks to energy chains, downtime is avoided wherever energy in the form of electricity, gas, air or fluids is supplied to moving loads.
We offer two main ranges of drag chains/energy chains, non-metallic and metallic. The non-metallic range is constructed from a glass reinforced nylon 6 for extra strength ,corrosion resistance and durability. Our metallic range is avaiable in zinc coated steel or stainless steel with or without aluminium covers for extreme strength applications.
