Long Travel Nylon Drag Chain 38 – 38mm Inner Height for Extended Stroke

Key Advantages

1. Reduced Driving Force and Energy Consumption

The integrated rollers convert sliding friction into rolling friction, resulting in a significant reduction in driving resistance.

2. Supports Ultra-Long Travel Distances

When paired with a guide channel, the 38 Series enables sliding applications with travel distances ranging from 50 to 80 meters.

3. Low Operating Noise

The built-in "braking" mechanism optimizes the stopping action of the chain links; combined with the rolling action of the rollers, noise levels are significantly lower than those of traditional cable chains. This makes it ideal for workshops or laboratory environments where noise control is a critical requirement.

4. Extended Service Life for Cable Chains and Cables

Rolling friction generates minimal wear, ensuring that the chain links and crossbars remain highly resistant to abrasion. Furthermore, the smooth operation minimizes pulling forces and vibrations acting upon the internal cables. Constructed from nylon—a material known for its excellent self-lubricating properties and low coefficient of friction—the system generates virtually no friction-induced debris during operation.
