New XXL-material for E4-1 - even longer unsupported travels

Program extension E4-1

New: XXL-material: Allows for up to 25 % more unsupported span and for up to 7 m of unsupported travel. Solutions with gliding e-chains® are often more elaborate and expensive than unsupported applications, because a slightly longer e-chain® and a guide trough system becomes necessary. Usually, gliding e-chains® also require more space. The new XXL-material for e-chain® series E4-1 allows for 25 % longer unsupported span and makes unsupported travels of up to 7 m possible. The strong stop dog mechanism and interlocking side links under.
