"E2 e-tube - Applications

Since igus® introduced the first openable and (two-part) e-tube in the mid-1980s, many additional parts and improvements have been added to the range. e-tubes can be used in areas with hot chips, dirt and dust caused by woodworking, steel mills, pulp, textiles, agriculture, coal mines and many other unfavourable environmental conditions. Choose the cost-effective, alternative R100 series for low and medium speed applications. R series for higher speeds.

Typical industries and applications
General machinery, material handling, construction machinery, long travel in many industries, semiconductors, ESD versions, theatre and entertainment industry, vehicles.
