Stainless steel roller bearings as standard
Improved Low-Noise Version available
6 dB(A) lower noise through improved roller and link geometry
Further noise reduction through optimized guide through
rol e-chain®, rolling, not gliding
Traditional energy chains operating over long distances generally "gliding". rol e-chain® has been developed with the aim of pushing back the technical limits of this kind of operation. The demands placed on energy chains used over long distances have continuously increased in recent years. Travel over several hundred meters sets new challenges, as do extreme crane movement speeds at cable loads of up to 34 lbs/ft.
