Nylon Carriers
Technical Characteristics
Light and secure even at high speeds, SnapTrac
carriers will provide protection for the components
inside the carrier. The carrier is durable against harsh
corrosive environments as found in refi neries and
marine application, chemical fumes, refrigeration fl uids,
lubricating oils and solvent present in a temperature
range from -13°F to 257°F.
Choosing a Carrier
The designer must consider the travel length of the carrier
and the minimum bending radii of the hoses to be carried.
The additional load per foot must also be considered.
Layout of Cable in Carrier
Observe the allowable minimum bending radii of the
cables and hoses to be carried; it is advisable to add an
additional 10%. Cables of small diameter may be grouped
together and tied.
Options
