Cable Organizers
 
Cable organizers are used to prevent cables from tangling.
  • Cable Tie Organizers
    Steel strips with a row of holes that can be used on the bottom of cable loops with heavy-duty nylon cable ties to keep cables organized.

  • Bulk Cable Organizers
    Steel cable clamp used on the bottom of cable loops to keep cables organized.
Cable Protectors
 
The proper use of tow chains, tow cable and shock cords may be necessary to protect festoon cable from impact and acceleration forces. Cable protectors are recommended for systems that have more than 500 lbs. of cable per trolley and are moving over 150 ft. per minute.
  • Tow Chains
    In all applications, except for marine duty, tow chains are preferred over tow cables. Tow chains hang better, do not twist and have a higher degree of elasticity, which helps to eliminate impact forces to the trolley.

  • Tow Cables
    Preferred in marine environments, tow cables have a higher degree of corrosion resistance than tow chains.

  • Shock Cords
    Shock cords act like a spring to help trolleys separate slowly and at the same time. Shock cords may be used between each trolley or just between the tow trolley and the first immediate trolley to help reduce acceleration forces.
