EAST PROVIDENCE, R.I. – igus® Inc., the industry leading developer of Energy Chain® cable carriers and Chainflex® continuous-flex cables, also offers snap-open Energy Tubes for debris-infested, harsh environments. Tested by customers, these tubes withstood a barrage of medium-sized metal chips at temperatures of up to 1600 degrees Fahrenheit. Chips were easily removed with a brush and the stability and performance of the Energy Tube were not compromised.

Igus Energy Tubes are available in more than 800 styles, sizes and configurations and with various features to meet the unique needs of each application. All styles feature removable or snap-open lids to provide conduit availability at each link along the carrier. When closed, these lids connect and lay flat for maximum protection.
