About Brevetti Stendalto
Brevetti Stendalto is a manufacturer of energy chain systems, cables for dynamic applications and related components. Founded in 1968, the company produced the world's first cable chain made of nylon. The product range includes plastic chains, steel chains in galvanized or stainless steel versions, special chains for robotics applications (rotating applications), extra-flexible cables as well as flexible polyamide sheaths and fittings. With the Total Chain system, the company supplies pre-assembled chains with cables and connectors that are installed on site ready for operation. The energy chain systems are designed for applications with special requirements, such as salt water, explosion protection, extreme cold and heat, heavy soiling and radioactivity. The main fields of application are mechanical and plant engineering, crane systems, oil and gas extraction as well as antenna and telescope technology. The company includes subsidiaries in the USA (Brevetti Inc., Charlotte) and China (Brevetti Drag Chain Systems Shanghai) as well as branches in France and Norway.
