igus E2 energy chain suits many hydraulic hose applications
Special challenges require innovation. This applies to the extendable support legs on many construction vehicles, such as concrete pump trucks or mobile cranes. Here, the safe guidance of hydraulic hoses and cables is critical as they supply the continuous power to the equipment, even under high mechanical stress and tough environmental conditions. Efficient protection is provided by the E2 U-type energy chain from igus. It not only protects the hoses and cables inside, but also prevents torsion and kinking of them due to the predefined minimum bending radius.
