778 YE.42 E4.42 5.25 2.8 More information www.igus.eu/YE YE | Features | Accessories | Proof Standard interior separation from the proven E4 modular system available from stock Tough steel mounting brackets with attachment options from any side Variable widths - 50mm to 400mm inner width available. Crossbars openable and removable along the inner and outer radius Steel inner plates absorb the force of the stop-dogs of the plastic outer links and increase the stability by 50% Plastic outer links - high tensile force absorption using plastic pins. Plastic outer links provide 50% less weight, quick installation and smooth running Strong and vibration-resistant - for heavy loads with compact dimensions and low weight. The advantage for access platforms is that each saved gram increases the payload Tested in the igus ® laboratory: 87.5%more unsupported length FL G with 2kg/m fill weight than a comparable plastic e-chain ® Unsupported length FL G Test - unsupported length of the igus ® YE.42 series In a comparison test in its test laboratory, which is the largest in the industry, igus ® compared the YE.42 and E4.42 series with each other. The two series were evaluated with regard to their unsupported length (with straight upper run) with a 2kg/m fill weight. Result : With a fill weight of 2kg/m, the YE.42 series can travel unsupported for a distance of up to 5.25m but the E4.42 can only achieve 2.8m. This corresponds to an 87.5% longer unsupported length (with straight upper run) with a 2kg/m fill weight for the YE.42 series compared to the E4.42 series.
