How does autoglide 5 work? The steel rope included is stretched across the floor. Alternatively, guidance via a plastic rope or a profile is also possible. The e-chain ® can travel safely on the PVC-jacketed steel rope. The underside of the e-chain ® links have a guide element in the middle, so that the energy chain can rest safely on the steel rope. autoglide elements ensure wear- resistant and precise alignment of the upper run of the e-chain ® .
