Tsubaki Kabelschlepp offers the lightweight and low-noise
all-round 1320 cable and hose carriers from the Uniflex
Advanced series as a particularly robust version for rough
application environments.
This cable and hose carrier with interior widths of 38mm and
50mm offers extra flexibility wherever extremely high torsion
rigidity and stress-resistance is a must.
The plastic carrier, which was awarded the Eco-Link label, fulfils
the most stringent of environmental-compatibility standards set
out by Tsubaki Group.
The 1320 models of the Uniflex Advanced series were originally
developed as a custom solution to safely route bend-proof
hydraulic hoses through the extendible supports of a concrete
transporter.
The limited construction space required a particularly compact
cable carrier with small bend radii and a favourable ratio of
interior to exterior width.
Due to the extreme application conditions with dirt, strong
vibrations and high mechanical stresses, the torsion rigidity
of the cable carrier was optimised with single-part links
manufactured from plastic material.
A double stroke system for large unsupported sections and
lateral wear surfaces make the Uniflex Advanced 1320 extremely
robust.
The internal damping system ensures particularly low-vibration
and low-noise running of the cable carrier.
The optimised chain geometry keeps the weight of the carriers
of the Uniflex Advanced series extremely low.
The plastic cable and hose carrier Uniflex Advanced 1320 by
Tsubaki Kabelschlepp with interior widths of 38mm and 50mm
is available as a cost-effective standard solution for high-stress
applications. The chain is supplied with bend-radii of 28, 38, 48,
75 and 100mm, and a pitch of 32mm.
The aluminium continuous height separators TS 0 or TS 1 are
offered as matching divider systems.
The dividers can be moved along the cross-section, and can
be fixed in place for laterally recumbent applications, or for
applications with great transverse acceleration. The divider
systems are mounted on every second chain link as standard.
