Introduction:

This is great heavy duty cable carrier for CNC Machines and any other motion related equipment. Don't let your cable get caught up in the machine.

Description:

A cable chain is a chain of links that carry your cables, tubes, hoses and conduit so you don't have the possibility of the these cables and other things catching on parts of the machine. The cable carrier runs along the axis and you will need a little more than half of the axis travel length, depending on how your motion and axis is designed.

The inside diameter of this cable carrier is 1 inch (25.4 mm) x 0.87 inches (22.1 mm).

To determine the length of cable carrier you will need for a single axis, measure the axis travel of your machine, divide this by 2 and add 12.5 inches. The radius of the curl is 2 inches. Purchase brackets separately. . If you find a lower price, let us know.
