Video of the Week Chainfix Saddle Clamps Advanced strain relief for extreme environments
Integrating strong, secure strain relief into energy chain mounting brackets is essential to ensuring good cable performance in moving applications. Limited space, high pull forces, vibration and temperature extremes, as well as exposure to oil, coolants and lubricants, are all challenges that need to be tackled by any strain relief system. Unfortunately, most conventional strain-relief systems do not cope well with such conditions. For this reason, igus developed a range of Chainfix saddle clamps for fixing cables properly within energy chains in extreme environments. Quick and easy to install, igus laboratory test results show that tensile strength can be as much as three times higher than that of standard clamps (for example 3,500 N instead of 1,000 N). In addition, the narrow width and low height of the Chainfix saddle clamps make optimum use of limited space, whilst the part number and correct direction of installation are clearly marked. There are a number of variations in the Chainfix saddle clamp range. The double saddles are optimised with locating lugs that make installation quick and easy and the strain-relief assembly secure. The saddles are made of optimised igumid G plastic; abrasion-free and easy on cables, they work very well with a wide range of sheathing materials (PVC, PUR, TPE etc.). Chainfix Nuggets can be used for fixing cables and hoses up to a diameter of 20mm. This space-saving and low-cost strain relief

element slides easily and quickly into the same C-profile rail with no tooling required. Strain-relief separators are a further special solution; these combine energy chain interior division components with strain relief and are particularly well-suited for use in enclosed style energy tubes.
