Car energy chains with motion plastics

Car energy chains are necessary as electrically controlled functions in passenger cars, commercial and special vehicles are becoming increasingly complex. If damage occurs to the power and signal cables, the function of the vehicle suffers and the reputation of the manufacturer is also at stake. Our energy chains for vehicles protect your moving cables. They are used in electric sliding doors, seat adjusters and boot lids. In doing so, they are geared to meet the latest requirements: not only do they fulfil the task of guiding cables through countless cycles in confined installation spaces, they are also light and quiet - important criteria in the age of electro-mobility and in the new interior.

Advantages of igus® energy chains in cars

  • Cost-effective
  • Lightweight and quiet
  • Cable-friendly
  • Easy to fit
  • Long predictable service life
  • Certified according to IATF 16949

igus® car energy chains for use in new interiors

Examples of igus® energy chains in cars

More movement in new interiors


Autonomous delivery vans, self-driving vans and conference shuttles with movable furniture: this is how the interiors may look like in the future, with more electrically moving components, efficiently used in confined spaces. Our energy chains used in cars ensure that the movement functions reliably, quietly and inconspicuously.

Cable Clip for quick attachment of cables

Areas of use within the car interior

Longer service life in the smallest installation space

e-chain® in sliding door e-chains® in sliding doors guide cables in the smallest installation space, e.g. for keyless entry systems and safety features. They prolong the cables service life due to defined radii and kinematics.

Safe cable guidance in seating systems

e-chains® in the seating system The electrics in cars have increased immensely and more and more systems are permanently supplied with electricity so as to offer the necessary driving comfort. e-chains® are ideal for guiding cables safely from A to B.

Reliable protection despite constant movement

e-chain® in the wiper systems e-chains® are dimensionally stable in different environments and climate zones, and are able to cope with high acceleration and forces applied to them. Therefore, they protect cables in the wiper systems during constant movement.
