ABUS takes advantage of this idea and uses it as a casing for chain locks. On the one hand, this increases protection against abrasion, and on the other hand, the cover protects the bicycle from damage caused by the chain. In addition to durability, other features speak for IvyTex technology: The high-tech fabric is durable and highly flexible. It is weather-resistant and insensitive to liquids. This will z. B. Water is not absorbed by the fabric and the locks are protected from corrosion. So there is no reason not to secure the bike in unfavorable weather for fear of contamination.

• 7 mm thick square chain with new functional, durable and highly flexible Ivy synthetic fiber coating to protect against paint damage
• Covering offers very high protection against abrasion and does not absorb liquids, e.g. water or oil
• The chain, the housing and supporting parts of the locking mechanism are made of specially hardened steel
• Good protection with a low to medium risk of theft
