Steel link apron covers – FLEX-COVER.
Lighter, tougher, more economical.
The new FLEX-COVER link apron cover represents a small revolution: it is made from sheet steel, making it 3 times more robust than aluminium – but weighing the same.
Its completely new construction means that penetration by fluids and chips is virtually impossible. The individual elements roll against each other in the radius of the lamellas. There is hardly any wear, as there is no friction, and no bendable connection elements that could be exposed to fatigue.
FLEX-COVER gives you improved properties with no increase in weight, and at a considerably lower price.
Light construction, extremely tough
The specially-milled sheet steel lamellas are held together by a slotted plastic tube, which is itself affixed by means of spring steel clips.
