Series E2.1

Series E2.1 e-chain®

Best e-chain® for medium fill weights

Some of the benefits that the E2.1 series has to offer are more installation space, easy filling and quick assembly. This new generation of the two-section energy chains was developed as an improvement on the preceding E2/000 series, which has proved its worth over a period of 15 years. The E2.1 series offers extremely fast filling from the side or from the top - along the inner or outer radius, using a chain opener or screwdriver. With all these properties, the E2.1 is ideal for use in general engineering, woodworking and metalworking industry and in machine tool construction.
