Features and benefits

To safely guide cables in suspended applications, igus® has developed the e-loop® as an alternative to the service loop - ideally suited for 3-dimensional applications.

The e-loop® combines the advantages of a plastic-energy chain with those of a high-strength traction cable. The tensile forces are transmitted to the mounting bracket and the structure through the tensile cable inside the chain. As a result, the cables remain completely strain-relieved.

The modular e-chain® made of high-performance plastic offers a defined bend radius at all times and withstands vibrations and impacts in the trade show

Modular system, easy to open
No parts to lose thanks to optional screw locks
Maximum cable diameter up to 76 mm, or 500 mm bend radius
Protection against impacts thanks to robust PU outer body
Double screw locking of all elements for high operational safety
Insensitive to dirt
A "Drop-Safe" version with additional screw locks is also available as an option - as well as a stainless steel version
Weather-resistant
Easy maintenance
Mounting bracket for quick and easy installation
All components are individually replaceable
Cable-friendly two-chamber interior separation

The most exciting projects with e-loop®

Full functionality in spite of a snowstorm - top drive

For a Canadian oil drilling company, an e-loop energy chain solution from igus guarantees that the top drive, which lowers the drill pipe into the earth and pulls it out again, is always safely and reliably supplied with energy and signals even after heavy storms.

Bucket wheel excavator

The e-loop is used in a bucket wheel excavator made by Holcim (Germany) GmbH. The modular system made of high-performance plastic always enables a defined bend radius and can handle vibration and impacts. Instead of the planned eight hours of installation time, work with the e-loop was completed after just four hours.

Top drive System

The e-loop modular energy chain system is being used in a drilling rig in the oil and gas industry. The igus e-loop has made it possible to improve the service life of the drilling rig and considerably reduce costs. Moreover, the cables in the mast can no longer become tangled.
