Plastic Cable Carriers Help Entertain
System E4/100 and System E4 ‘Light’ Energy Chains are specifically designed to handle high loads, accelerations and speeds, making them an ideal choice for the KA show. Due to their unique side-link and stop-dog design, these carriers also reduce noise by 50 percent.
Systems E4/100 and E4 Light are maintenance free, dirt 
repellant and available in a wide range of styles and widths. For environments with harsh elements such as hot chips or chemicals, System E4 is available in an enclosed tube design to shield cables from damage. These carriers are also equipped with snap-open crossbars for easy cable installation.
