How to Choose the Right Size:
Step 1: Choose Inner Height-Inner height of drag chain ＞ 1.2~1.5 times of wire diameter
Step 2: Choose Inner Width- Inner width of cable chain = total wire width + reserved 20% space
Step 3: Choose Bending Radius-Check the arc size at the drag chain turning point of the equipment, prefer a larger radius over a smaller one
Step 4: Confirm Installation Length-S/2+K (Rπ+2P)
