Cable Drag Chain 15x20mm ID – 1m Length

These sturdy Cable Drag Chains come in lengths of 1m and are designed to tidy up your cable management. Keep your cables neat and protected from damage. Drag chains are built from a series of links which connect together and act like a bendable protective sleeve. Some electronics machines require cables weaving and moving with the pulley mechanisms to function, like the hotend cables on a 3D printer. This can get problematic when cables tangle together, snag on stray corners, and pull out of their sockets. The Cable Drag Chains enclose your cables and bend with them, greatly reducing the chance of anything going awry.

Our cable drag chains are made from a durable plastic, but can be easily opened with a screwdriver during cable insertion. They can also be lengthened or shortened by simply connecting or removing extra chain links, allowing you to completely cover almost any cable with a diameter of 15mm or less. This protective chain can also be used for multiple smaller cables as well, rather than one large diameter cable, which is especially important for systems or machines with numerous cables that can get caught in moving parts – like in 3D printers for example.

Typical Applications for 1m Long 15x20mm Cable Drag Chains:

Our one-meter long Cable Drag Chains are primarily used for machines and systems with many moving parts that could damage cables within a system. In such machines, the cables can be damaged in a variety of ways:

• Firstly, moving parts can potentially catch cables and burn, cut or stretch the cables beyond their capabilities.
• Secondly, if the cables are attached to any moving parts, the constant movement will ensure a quicker rate of wear and tear.
• Finally, as loose cables move they can get tangled together, which can cause the cables to pull on components or stretch in ways they shouldn’t.

Fortunately, our 15x20mm ID cable drag chains cater to all of these problems, and not only ensure your cables and machines are kept safe and in working order, but also look fantastically neat and tidy while doing so.
