Long-lasting cables
22 August 2014
igus says its chainflex cables are proven to last millions of cycles in dynamic e-chain applications.

This is due to the way in which the cables are designed and manufactured. The copper stranding, core bundling, shielding and outer jacket are all vital parts of a good dynamic cable design, and by optimising these, igus says it can guarantee that its chainflex cables will last millions of cycles in e-chain applications.
