776 More information www.igus.eu/YE YE | Plastic-steel hybrid e-chains ® | Design principle Plastic outer links The plastic outer links of the YE systemaremade of glass fibre reinforced igumidG. Large pins result in a high tensile force. Due to rotation around the plastic pins, the e-chain ® is very smooth in operation. A single outer link is necessary for the entire product range. This increases the flexibility and quick availability of various bending radii. The undercut design of the stop-dogs lock the steel links under load. Almost 50% less weight than a pure steel chain of comparable size, thanks to plastic outer links Significantly lower assembly costs - e-chain ® links can be assembled individually High ease of movement due to plastic pin connections, high tensile force absorption
