Description
igus 14.2.028 E-Chain Cable Carrier Energy Chain 28mm x 14mm CNC
The igus 14.2.028 is a plastic E-Chain cable carrier (also called a drag chain or energy chain) from igus's 14-series line. These modular, open-link chain carriers are designed to guide and protect cables, hoses, and pneumatic lines on moving machine axes, preventing tangling, abrasion, and fatigue failures. The individual links open along the top for easy cable loading and routing without disassembling the chain. A fixed end bracket is included for mounting to a frame or machine table.

Applications
igus E-Chain cable carriers are standard components in CNC machining centers, milling machines, lathes, laser cutters, and plasma tables, where the cutting head or spindle travels repeatedly along a linear or multi-axis path. The chain keeps power cables, coolant hoses, and signal lines organized and protected through thousands of flex cycles. They are also widely used in robotics, pick-and-place systems, industrial automation equipment, and 3D printers. The 14-series is a compact, lightweight chain suited to applications with limited space and moderate cable bundles — common in small-format CNC routers, servo-driven actuators, and gantry systems. igus chains are engineered to run dry without external lubrication, which reduces maintenance requirements in industrial environments.
This igus 14.2.028 E-Chain cable carrier is new and unused. The chain shows no signs of wear, discoloration, or damage. Links open and close freely and the end bracket is intact. Please review our photos and contact us with any questions before purchasing.
