OP-DRG-45x200xR200 Cable Drag Chain
Plastic cable drag chain, 45 mm high x 200 mm wide, 200 mm bending radius, 1000 mm length.
Overview
The OP-DRG-45x200xR200 is a plastic cable drag chain for routing motor, encoder and sensor cables alongside a moving axis without them dragging on the machine bed or tangling on themselves.
Its cross-section is 45 mm high by 200 mm wide, the widest chain in this range, suited to a large bundle of power and control cables together - wider than the OP-DRG-45x150xR200, sharing the same 45 mm height and 200 mm bending radius. The bending radius sets how tight a loop the chain can fold into as the axis travels; the same 200 mm radius as the 150 mm-wide chain is enough for the thicker power cables a bundle this wide is likely to carry.
It is supplied in a 1000 mm length and can be cut to size, in black plastic marked with colour dots for identifying chain segments during assembly.
Open-link construction lets cables be laid in from the side rather than threaded end to end, which matters when a cable already has connectors on both ends.
For a narrower bundle at the same 45 mm height, the OP-DRG-45x150xR200 covers 150 mm width instead; for a matching end connector set, the STR-45B is sized for this chain's width.
Supplied by Tiny Controls in India.

Questions
I've got a big bundle of power and control cables together — will this take it?
Yes, that's exactly the intended use — a large bundle of power and control cables together, at 45mm high by 150mm wide.
Why such a large bending radius on this one?
200mm — needed because thicker power cables in a large bundle can't bend as tightly without stressing their conductors.
Is this the biggest chain you sell?
The widest in this catalogue is actually the OP-DRG-45x200xR200 (same height and bend radius, 200mm wide instead of 150mm) — so this one is large, but not the single biggest.
If my bundle turns out smaller than this, what's a step down?
The OP-DRG-35x100xR150 and the rest of this range go down as far as 25mm high.
