6.1 Use of glide shoes

We offer a variety of options to substantially extend the operating life of the cable carrier in long travel applications.

Replaceable glide shoes made of plastic The replaceable glide shoes are a very cost-efficient solution as only the glide shoes and not the complete cable carrier have to be replaced when worn. An abrasion resistant material is used for travel speeds > 2.5 m/s and high additional loads. OFFROAD glide shoes with 80% greater wearing volume is also available for the types M0650-M1300. We recommend their use for extreme ambient conditions (for especially abrasive substances such as sand, dust, corundum).

Slide discs If the cable carrier is positioned so it is rotated by 90° (gliding on the outside of the side band), slide discs snapped onto the side optimize the friction and wear situation.

Molded slide runners These ensure a long service life of the cable carrier for long travel lengths and high additional loads.
