General Information SELF-SUPPORTING CAPACITY Cable chains are used more and more frequently on long travel distances as a valid alternative to the traditional systems of conductor bars or festoon systems, and offer the following advantages: slide on themselves. The resulting friction is reduced due to the special polymers used. The dimensions of the skid allow the chain to keep itself stable even in applications with high velocities. • The possibility of combined transportation of hydraulic cables and tubes. On request it is possible to produce cable chains with special polyamides before...
