Drag chain recommendations needed!

[reibuehl]

Hi all,

I am searching for a drag chain that can be opened to put in the cable - similar to IRobertI's design for the UM2 but wider and preferably "buyable" since I need over 1 meter and printing so many parts does not sound too economic

Can you recommend something? I am looking for an outside diameter of approximately 10x30mm.

Best regards,
Reiner

Hi reibuehl,
Check out Igus, they have a good range, their part files are also available.

The easy chain from Igus looks very interesting. They have so many options... I need to investigate. I hope they are not too expensive for my budget.

Hi !
If 10x 20mm would suit, take a look here,

10x20 is what I got with my CNC - that is too tight for USB, controller power and spindle power. I now ordered one from Igus - they are quite affordable, I was surprised how little it costs
