STR-45B Cable Chain End Connector Set
Cable chain end connector set for 45 mm-wide chain, one fixed and one movable connector.
Overview
The STR-45B is an end connector set for a cable drag chain 45 mm wide, sold as a pair - one fixed connector and one movable connector.
A drag chain needs a connector at each end: one anchors the chain to a fixed point on the machine frame, and the other attaches to the moving carriage so the chain travels with the axis as it moves. The fixed and movable connectors in this set are not interchangeable, since the movable end typically needs to pivot or slide slightly as the chain folds, while the fixed end doesn't.
This set matches the 45 mm width used by the OP-DRG-45x150xR200 and OP-DRG-45x200xR200 chains in this catalogue, the widest two chains in this range - either can use this connector set, since the connector width is what has to match, not the chain's height or bending radius.
For a different chain width, the STR-25B and STR-35B connector sets match the 25 mm and 35 mm chains in this range instead.

Questions
I've got the widest chain you sell — does this connector set actually cover it?
Yes — it matches both the OP-DRG-45x150xR200 and OP-DRG-45x200xR200, the widest two chains in this range, since connector width is what has to match, not chain height or bending radius.
Does the chain come with this included, or is it a separate purchase?
Separate — a drag chain needs a connector at each end, and this set is that pair.
Are the fixed and movable connectors the same part, just two of them?
No — they're different and not interchangeable. The movable end needs to pivot or slide slightly as the chain folds; the fixed end doesn't.
My chain is narrower than 45mm — is there a smaller set?
Yes — the STR-25B and STR-35B match the 25mm and 35mm chains in this range.
