Elastic Cords for Automatic Doors (CO48): Which Specifications to Prioritize?

Automatic doors require reliable components to ensure smooth and secure operation. Among these essential elements, elastic cords play a key role. Their strength, elasticity and durability guarantee optimal tension and enhanced safety. The CO48 cord, with its high-end specifications, is particularly suited to these requirements.

Understanding the specific needs of automatic doors

Elastic cords for automatic doors must meet precise criteria:

Tensile strength: A cord like the CO48 must be capable of supporting heavy loads, with appropriate elongation force. For example, an 8 mm cord offers optimal resistance for heavy doors.

Elongation and elastic memory: Quality cords, like the CO48, maintain their elasticity even after repeated stress, ensuring durable and reliable operation.

Wear resistance: With its polyethylene (PE) coating, the CO48 elastic cord resists moisture, UV rays and friction, making it ideal for demanding environments.

Key materials and dimensions

Materials: The CO48 cord features a polyethylene sheath, combined with a multi-strand natural rubber core reinforced with anti-UV agents. This combination guarantees exceptional durability.

Dimensions: Available in 6 mm, 8 mm and 10 mm diameters, the CO48 cord covers a wide range of applications, from multipurpose uses to industrial environments.

Why choose a premium elastic cord?

Premium elastic cords like the CO48 provide significant advantages:

• Increased safety through constant tension.
• Proven durability with excellent abrasion resistance exceeding 4000 cycles.
• Adaptability with multiple colors (black, white,...) and lengths available.
