Real-world examples

YRHD in DWK Drahtwerk

Hybrid tube YRHD used at DWK Drahtwerk Köln as a replacement for steel tube

High stability and high fill weight - both requirements of the DKW Drahtwerk Köln have led to the selection of the hybrid chain YRHD.108.25.500.0 (tube variant) in order to implement the travel of 12.5m unsupported with a fill weight of 28kg/m can. The lid and shelves of the energy tube can be opened so that it is possible to add or replace cables later.
YE.42 at Sinopec

Two YE.42 hybrid chains side by side replace a steel chain at Sinopec

In steel chains, the built-in hydraulic hoses of this power catwalk application wear out very quickly, so that an alternative was sought. As the YE.42 hybrid chain consists of steel side plates that ensure an unsupported length that is approx. 100% longer (compared to plastic chains of the same size) and as the plastic links that have proven themselves for more than 35 years are used as crossbars, the YE series hybrid chain solves the customer's wear problem.
YE.42 at Genie

YE.42 hybrid chains for retrofitting a Genie work platform

The YE.42 series with a chain length of 7.5 metres is used in a Genie work platform. Flawless function after installation. The engineers on site particularly emphasised the ease of installation: It took much longer to remove the existing steel chain than to install the new YE hybrid energy chain, which was done within an hour in this application.
