Cable Carriers
E4.1 overview

Heavy duty cable carriers for most applications

The E4.1 e-chain® system combines all the benefits of its three predecessors in the E4 range. E4.1 cable carriers offer greater stability with the same or smaller dimensions while almost all the accessories and mounting brackets are the same. With igus® E4.1 cable carriers, the service life of your application can be increased and costs significantly reduced.
