E4: Extreme-Gliding
New: Versions with enlarged gliding surfaces for extreme applications
For decades, highly wear-resistant igus® plastic e-chains® have been used successfully in thousands of applications. To further increase life in extreme applications, such as very dirty environments or very high fill weights, igus now offers a version with up to 70% larger glide surface.
