We certify an up to 36 month guarantee on all e-chain® cable carriers


To determine the service life of its products, igus puts them through their paces under the most adverse conditions, up to failure, in its 41,000 square foot test laboratory.  Up to 10 billion test cycles are completed each year in the test lab.  Using the data gained, the e-chain service life calculator determines the operating time of the igus standard energy chains in specific applications. Over 4,000 tests and more than 7,500 results flow into the online tool. More tests are performed every day in the endeavour to deliver more precise statements about the service life. Therefore, igus is the only supplier in the world to offer a 36 month guarantee on their energy chains.

When does the guarantee start?The guarantee is valid for new purchases as of 15/02/2020. It commences from the delivery date of the energy chain and covers all e-chain components against failure due to wear and tear.
 
When does the guarantee end?The guarantee ends after 36 months, starting from the delivery date.
Is there a guarantee for the cables within the e-chain?We also offer a 36 month guarantee on chainflex cables used in e-chains.
