Series 340 Classic

DISCONTINUED MODEL
For new constructions, we recommend the technically improved e-chain® Series 3400 from the igus® E20000 product range.
Secure hold of the crossbars, improved opening principle, longer unsupported lengths, same dimensions

Series 340 is available from stock in limited numbers. For questions, please refer to your igus® contact person. Thank you for your understanding
to the E20000 Series 3400

Here you can configure your e-chain system® individually. All entries and changes are taking over to the part list which is situated at the end of the page.

Series 340 - chain, openable along the inner radius

1. Large pins - long service life
2. Cable-friendly interior
3. Dirt-repellent
4. Sliding surfaces for side-mounted operation
5. Chamfered opening, easy assembly

* The required clearance height is HF = H + 40 mm (at 2.5 kg/m fill weight), which should be observed in all types of applications. Please contact us if you have particularly confined space requirements.
** The calculated length corresponds to the chain length without mounting brackets.

A=moving end, B=fixed end
Pitch: 67 mm
Chain links per m: 15
Travel: S
Chain length = S/2 + K

Unsupported length

The unsupported length depends on 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
