Only the ball-bearing principle used enables loads of 6000 N pressure and 15000 N traction so easily and smoothly. DURA Flexball is laid spatially on three levels in a system of bends with low bending radii and is 97% effective, particularly under heavy payloads. Stainless steel inner components guarantee an optimal life-span with high fatigue resistance under reverse bending processes. DURA Flexball replaces, in many cases, complex solid rods, hydraulic, pneumatic or electric transfer devices and also the energy supply machinery required to power them.

2 DURA Flexball is manufactured in lengths ready to install. The advantages at a glance: Flexible Can be laid on three levels Works on compression and tension Operation ratio almost 1 No maintenance or lubrication necessary Comfortable installation Indifferent to fluctuations in temperature Works reliably and without interruption, even at lengths of over 20 Meters and spatial laying Synthetic covering made from Dytron (TPE green) for protection against exposure, water splashes and other foreign bodies Flexible Steel Pipe Half-rounded rails Ball bearing cage Moveable central plate Balls - DURA automotive Systems GmbH Julius-Saxler-Strasse 1 D-54550 Daun Tel.: + 49 (0) 6592 / 710 - 170 Fax: + 49 (0) 6592 / 710 - 204 Design and Performance - All metal parts are made from stainless steel - Agraff tube with DYTRON coating, silicon coating for high temperature applications - Special models possible The following information is required when ordering - DURA Flexball model (DZ, S3 etc.)
