An energy guide chain including two plate comprising successive chain plates which respectively partially overlap with each other in overlap regions. A respective side part of plastic is associated with each second chain plate. The chain plates are made from a different material from the side parts and have through apertures in their overlap regions. In its two end regions each side part has a plurality of projections which respectively engage through the overlapping apertures in the associated chain plate and the respectively adjoining chain plate to limit the relative pivotal angle of successive chain plates and/or to connect same. In addition there is proposed a two-part separating web for an energy guide chain, wherein the first part has at least one securing pin and the second part has at least one securing receiving means so that the two parts can be connected and released in a direction perpendicular to the main plane of the separating web.
