Series R58

Here you can configure your Energy Chain System® individually. All entries will be copied to the Bill of Materials shown at the bottom of this page.

Series R 58 - openable in the outer radius

1.Very good protection for cables and hoses, also against hot chips
2. Small divisions for quiet, smooth operation
3. Removable external-radius lid
4.Fully enclosed

Inner widths Bi: 1.97, 2.95 (50, 75 mm)
Bending radii R: 2.95 up to 9.84 (75 - 250 mm)
Pitch: 1.31 (33.3 mm) per link = 10 links/ft (30/m)

When to use Series R58 "E2 tubes"

When particularly smooth operation is required
In the case of particularly high speeds
In the case of high requirements concerning protection against chips

When not to use Series R58 "E2 tubes"

When a particularly economical solution is of prime importance
Series R157
When no protection against chips is required
E2 medium - Series 26

Aluminum "Super Trough"- the igus® standard

The Aluminum "SuperTrough" is a modular guide trough system for long travels (when E-Chains® glide on themselves, as per sketch). Aluminum "SuperTrough" is available in low cost "basic versions" and can be upgraded for heavy duty applications. This universal usage makes it the igus® recommended new standard trough system.

Multiple fastening options with heavy duty brackets, bottom clamps and interface connectors
Side-mount glide strips for wear protection in high-speed
Corrosion proof through seawater resistant aluminium
Flexible assembly - connects with underground, independent from profile length and location of trough section interfaces

Guide troughs are used for applications in which the upper run of the Energy Chain® glides on the lower run. The following components are required if the igus® steel guide trough is used.Guide trough without glide bars part no. 95-30, guide trough with glide bars part no. 95-31. Installation sets as a joint connection part no. 95-50. XX
.XX indicates the length of the C-profiles on which the guide trough is mounted.The standard length of the trough components and glide bars is 6.56 ft (2 m). The required total length of the guide trough is determined by the travel.
