Almost 50% less weight than a
pure steel chain comparable
size, thanks plastic outer links
Significantly lower assembly
costs e-chain® links can
be assembled individually
High ease movement due
to plastic pin connections,
high tensile force absorption
50% longer unsupported
length than comparable
plastic e-chain®
Strong notched crossbars
with visible scale and double
locking mechanism
No screws, rivets or
bolts which can become
loose under vibration
. The system designed such way that when loaded, force exerted
on the fixed stops from both sides through the steel links. Due rotation around the plastic pins, the e-chain® is
very smooth operation.eu/YE
