strain relief option
5. Version E, filled along outer radius
6. Version Z, filled along inner radius
7. Dirt-repellent outer contours
8. Very easy to fill
9. Available with {N10}, 2 or 3-chamber system (permanently injection-moulded multiple-chamber system for cable separation)
Series E26 )
Series E26.2
10. "Pushbutton design" holds links together

Available inner widths: 3x47 mm
Available bend radii R: 63 to 250 mm

* The required clearance height is HF = H + 35 mm (with 2 kg/m fill weight), this should be taken into account for all application types. Please contact us if you have particularly narrow space conditions.
** The calculated length corresponds to the chain length without mounting brackets.

Travel: S
Chain length = S/2 + K

Unsupported length

Unsupported length versus fill weight
X axis: Unsupported length in m FLB/FLG
Y axis: Fill weight in kg/m
Lower scale: Travel S in m
FLB = Unsupported with permissible sag
FLG = Unsupported with straight upper run
