Translation: Spacers for El-TY series bands, made of chemically resistant polypropylene, are used to separate the mounted wire or cable from the supporting element, e.g. a steel cable, and protect the wire insulation from mechanical damage. This situation may occur due to vibrations or other movements of the wire in relation to the supporting element, e.g. due to temperature changes and differences in thermal expansion of materials. Spacers are primarily used to separate the mounting element from the supporting element, e.g. a suspended cable from a steel cable.
