igus® strain relief systems are tested in practice taking into account a variety of parameters.
Whether under the influence of fluids like water or oil, or in the most varied ambient temperatures. The combination of the Chainfix systems with a wide range of jacket materials of cables and hoses plays also of course a role in the in-house tests.
